Overview of blood supplies & territories
Lobes of the brain
Strokes
The outcome of compromised blood supply to the brain
Clinical Definition
Deficit: Focal neurological
Onset: Sudden
Origin: Vascular
Duration: >24 hours
TIAs = Strokes that last <24hours
Bamford Classification of Strokes
TACS =
PACS =
LACS =
POCS =
Total Anterior Circulation Syndrome
Partial Anterior Circulation Syndrome
Lacunar Syndrome
Posterior Circulation Syndrome
Also classified on compromised factor
Ischaemic Stroke
80%
Thromboembolic
Atherosclerotic
Haemorrhagic Stroke
20%
Worse outcome (usually)
MCA
occlusion
Hemispheric
haematoma
TACS
PACS
HEMIPARESIS
2/3 of criteria
For TACS
HOMONOMOUS HEMIANOPIA
DYSPHASIA/INATTENTION
LACS
4 classical syndromes
OR any of these 3
Isolated cortical dysfunction
Loss of proprioception in 1 limb
Monoplegia
Distal
MCA
occlusion
Distal
ACA
occlusion
POCS
Isolated visual field deficit
Cortical
perforation
Vessels
(from MCA)
1. Pure motor hemiparesis
2. Pure hemisensory loss
3. 1+2 together
4. Ataxic hemiparesis
(ipsilateral corticospmal and cerebellar- like dysfunction
due to supratentorial and brainstem lesions)
Opthalmoplegia
Cerebellar signs (PIGHAND)
Cranial nerve palsy + contralateral
motor/sensory deficit
Cortical
perforation
Vessels
(from MCA)
Meningeal Bleeds
Extradural
Meningeal arteries
Pterion = anatomical weak-spot
Hx of trauma / LoC / Lucid period
Sub-dural
Bridging veins across subdural space
Acute/Subacute(3-7/7)/Chronic(2-3/52)
At risk groups
Infants
Alcoholics
Elderly
Pts on Anticoagulants
Subarachnoid
Cerebral arteries
Berry aneurysm rupture/burst
