The Frequency of Cerebral Microembolism in Acute Myocardial Infarction

ABSTRACT Introduction: Stroke is more common in patients with cerebral microembolisms. Frequency of cerebral microembolisms (high intensity transient signals, HITS) in acute myocardial infarction has been reported about 17%. The factors that influence on microembolism after myocardial infarction (MI) are not definitive. Type of MI, Ejection fraction, Hx of Streptokinase is the factors that were...

Experimental cerebral infarction. II. Clinicopathological model of deep cerebral infarction.

Experimental Cerebral Infarction. II. Clinicopathological Model of Deep Cerebral Infarction • Injection of silicone rubber cylinders into the internal carotid system permits selective occlusion of the proximal middle cerebral artery segment in the dog. Occlusions of this segment obstruct the mouths of the lenticulostriate arteries and result in deep cerebral hemisphere infarctions. Surface vess...

Posterior cerebral artery infarction from middle cerebral artery infarction.

BACKGROUND While it is known that posterior cerebral artery (PCA) infarction may simulate middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction, the frequency and localization of this occurrence are unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of PCA infarction mimicking MCA infarction and the territory of the PCA most commonly involved in this simulation. DESIGN We studied 202 patients with isolated in...
