cerebellar infarction

Introduction

Introduction to cerebellar infarction The main cause of cerebellar infarction is caused by vertebral-basal artery abnormalities and cardiogenic emboli. It is clinically meaningful to find the lesions by nuclear magnetic resonance (MRI) and to accurately locate them. basic knowledge Sickness ratio: 0.05% Susceptible people: no specific population Mode of infection: non-infectious complication:

Cause

Cause of cerebellar infarction

Mostly caused by vertebral-basal artery abnormalities and cardiogenic emboli.

Prevention

Cerebellar infarction prevention

Weight control. Obesity is a risk factor for cerebral infarction and should be controlled by controlling diet (especially high-energy foods) and physical exercise. Dietary nutrition should be balanced, eat more vegetables, fruits and cereals, reduce the intake of saturated fatty acids and cholesterol, salt intake is controlled below 6 grams per day. Insist on exercise can reduce the risk of recurrence by 20%, and perform at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day, such as walking, jogging, Tai Chi, cycling, etc., 5-7 times a week. In addition, adjust your mentality, treat yourself and others correctly, and try to maintain a positive, open-minded, relaxed mood. For those who have a tendency to depression, antidepressant medication should be added.

Complication

Cerebellar infarction complications Complication

The following complications are prone to occur: myocardial infarction, pulmonary infection, urinary tract infection, renal insufficiency, hemorrhoids, joint contracture, stress ulcer, secondary epilepsy, psychiatric problems after cerebral infarction, dementia, etc.

Symptom

Cerebellar infarction symptoms common symptoms dizziness intracranial pressure increased sensory disorder gait instability nausea and vomiting

Clinically, cerebellar infarction is generally divided into three types: benign type, pseudo-tumor type and coma type. No matter which type of cerebellar infarction occurs, there will be clinical phenotypes such as dizziness, gait instability, nausea and vomiting, but the latter two. In addition to cerebellar syndrome, hemiplegia and even coma can be combined. Clinical treatment is generally given drugs such as defibration, anticoagulation, antiplatelet aggregation, activating blood circulation, aromatherapy, dehydration and intracranial pressure.

Examine

Examination of cerebellar infarction

It is clinically meaningful to find the lesions by nuclear magnetic resonance (MRI) and to accurately locate them.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis and diagnosis of cerebellar infarction

diagnosis

Diagnosis can be performed based on clinical performance and laboratory tests.

Differential diagnosis

Cerebral embolism: rapid onset, often history of heart disease, sources of emboli, such as rheumatic valvular heart disease, endocarditis, atrial fibrillation.
