ABSTRACT
Cerebral smal vessel disease (CSVD) can be divided into sporadic and hereditary CSVD. The exact pathogenesis of sporadic CSVD is unknow n. Genetic factors may also play an important role, except for environmental and vascular risk factors. As a complicated disease, sporadic CSVD has the characteristics of multigenetic susceptibility. Therefore, investigating the related genetic factors may contribute to understanding the pathogenesis of sporadic CSVD. This article review s the advances in research on the genetics of sporadic CSVD.
