Resumen
La enfermedad cerebro vascular (ECV) es la patología neurológica invalidante más prevalente de la población adulta mayor de 65 años y la tercera causa de muerte, se refiere a cualquier anormalidad cerebral, producto de un proceso patológico que comprometa los vasos sanguíneos, muy frecuentes, ocurren cuando el suministro de sangre a una parte del cerebro se interrumpe repentinamente o cuando un vaso sanguíneo en el cerebro se rompe, derramando sangre en los espacios que rodean a las células cerebrales, por la falta de irrigación sanguíneo, oxígeno y nutrientes, las células cerebrales mueren lo que ocasiona lesiones irreversibles. La hemorragia cerebral es una de las más temidas complicaciones del árbol arterial que irriga al cerebr0, provocada por múltiples enfermedades, sus secuelas son muchas veces permanentes yincapacitantes e incluso fatales.Los efectos de la hemorragia sobre el cerebro se relacionan con su tamaño y localización Tomografía Computarizada es el mejor método para evidenciar Encefalopatía Hemorrágica presenta alta sensibilidad en especial en procesos agudos, y para estudiar los efectos característicos de un problema cerebrovascular. Para entender las estructuras anatómicas cerebrales mediante tomografía computarizada se debe considerar el ángulo del plano de corte, ya que pequeñas modificaciones del mismo pueden causar cambios importantes en las estructuras anatómicas. La hemorragia hipertensiva generalmente se atribuye a la rotura de los aneurismas de Charcot-Bouchard que se encuentran en las arterias perforantes. En los pacientes que no fallecen los hematomas se licuan y reabsorben. Los cerebros de los pacientes hipertensos contienen, a menudo, varias de estas lesiones residuales.La suma de algunos factores sin duda influyen para de producir patologías cerebrovasculares de todos los tipos, para su diagnóstico la primera opción sin lugar a dudas es la Tomografía Computarizada siendo de gran valor tanto para el medico como para los pacientes que adolecen de patología cerebro vascularhemorrágica.
The cerebrovascular disease (CVD) is the most prevalent neurological disabling disease of the adult population over 65 years and the third cause of death, refers to any brain abnormality, the product of a pathological process that compromises the blood vessels, very frequent, occur when the blood supply to a part of the brain is suddenly interrupted or when a blood vessel in the brain breaks down, spilling blood into the spaces surrounding the brain cells, due to lack of blood supply, oxygen and nutrients, cells brain cells die causing irreversible injuries. Cerebral hemorrhage is one of the most feared complications of the arterial tree that irrigates the brain, caused by multiple diseases, its sequelae are often permanent and incapacitating and even fatal. The effects of hemorrhage on the brain are related to its size and location Tomography Computerized is the best method to evidence Hemorrhagic Encephalopathy presents high sensitivity especially in acute processes, and to study the characteristic effects of a cerebrovascular problem. To understand the anatomical structures of the brain by means of computed tomography, the angle of the cutting plane must be considered, since small modifications of it can cause important changes in the anatomical structures. Hypertensive hemorrhage is usually attributed to the rupture of Charcot-Bouchard aneurysms found in the perforating arteries. In patients who do not die, the bruises liquefy and reabsorb. The brains of hypertensive patients often contain several of these residual lesions. The sum of some factors undoubtedly influence to produce cerebrovascular pathologies of all types, for its diagnosis the first option without a doubt is the CT scan being of great value for both the doctor and for patients suffering from cerebro-vascular-hemorrhagic pathology.
