Brain autopsy revealed green pigmentation in areas of infarction due to vascular leakage of bilirubin at sites of blood–brain barrier disruption, mapping the borderzone regions and bilateral posterior anterior...
متن کاملInternal borderzone infarction: a marker for severe stenosis in patients with symptomatic internal carotid artery disease. For the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy (NASCET) Group.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Among subcortical infarctions, internal borderzone infarcts (IBI) are considered to be separate entities from perforating artery infarcts (PAI).
