Symptoms of cerebral vascular occlusion in the elderly?
This disease is more common in the elderly over 50-60 years old with arteriosclerosis, and some have a history of diabetes. It often occurs in quiet or sleep, and the symptoms gradually reach the peak within 1-3 days. Some patients had one or more transient ischemic attacks before the disease. Except for severe cases, the symptoms gradually reached the peak within 1-3 days, the consciousness was more clear, and the increase of intracranial pressure was not obvious.
Hemiplegia, hemiparesthesia, hemianopia and mental symptoms are the most common symptoms. The main side of the lesion still has different degrees of aphasia, apraxia and agnosia, and primary optic atrophy on the lesion side. There are characteristic blindness on the diseased side with contralateral hemiplegia, which are called black Meng cross numbness, Horner's sign, oculomotor nerve paralysis, and retinal artery pressure drop.
Because of the collateral circulation provided by the anterior communicating artery, there may be no symptoms when the proximal end of the artery is blocked; When the peripheral branches are involved, they often invade the medial side of the frontal lobe. Paralysis of the lower limbs is severe, and may be accompanied by cortical sensory disturbance and dysuria of the lower limbs; Deep perforating branch obstruction, affecting the anterior branch of the internal capsule, often occurs to the central facial paralysis and upper limb paralysis. When bilateral anterior cerebral artery occlusion, mental symptoms may appear, accompanied by bilateral paralysis.
