Atrial fibrillation with small subcortical infarcts.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the characteristics of cardioembolic small (maximum lesion diameter<1.5 cm) subcortical infarcts (SSI) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS Twenty seven patients with chronic AF and an isolated SSI established by CT/MRI in the anterior circulation (SSI-AF group) were evaluated and their characteristics compared with those of 45 age matched (+/-1 year) pati...
متن کاملMRI Characteristics of the Evolution of Supratentorial Recent Small Subcortical Infarcts
OBJECTIVE Morphological changes of recent small subcortical infarcts are not well defined. The purpose of the present study was to describe the MRI characteristics of the evolution for this stroke subtype. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of patients diagnosed with definite supratentorial recent small subcortical infarcts according to the ASCO classification with baseline and follo...
متن کاملFrequency and Predictors of Dysphagia in Patients With Recent Small Subcortical Infarcts.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Detailed data on the occurrence of swallowing dysfunction in patients with recent small subcortical infarcts (RSSI) in the context of cerebral small vessel disease are lacking. This prompted us to assess the frequency of and risk factors for dysphagia in RSSI patients. METHODS We identified all inpatients with magnetic resonance imaging-confirmed RSSI between January 20...
متن کاملVariation in risk factors for recent small subcortical infarcts with infarct size, shape, and location.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Lacunar infarction is attributable to a perforating arteriolar abnormality. Possible causes include embolism, atheromatosis, or intrinsic disease. We examined whether the size, shape, or location of the lacunar infarct varied with embolic sources, systemic atheroma, or vascular risk factors. METHODS We examined data from 3 prospective studies of patients with clinical a...
متن کاملLarge subcortical infarcts: clinical features, risk factors, and long-term prognosis compared with cortical and small deep infarcts.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In this study we compared risk factors, clinical features, and stroke recurrence in a large series of patients with large subcortical, cortical, or small deep infarcts. METHODS Patients with a transient or minor ischemic attack (modified Rankin Scale grade of < or =3) who had a single relevant supratentorial infarct of presumed noncardioembolic origin on CT were classif...
