Cerebrovascular Conditions
Cerebrovascular Conditions: Introduction
Conditions that affect the blood vessels in the brain. Cerebral refers to the brain and vascular refers to vessels. Strokes can result from blood vessel conditions such as aneurysms (blood vessel weakness which can result in a rupture) and thrombosis (blood vessel blockage). Atherosclerosis is a common cerebrovascular condition where fatty deposits are laid down inside arteries causing them to become increasingly narrowed.
