Early neurological deterioration in patients with lacunar stroke:the pathophysiological mechanisms and predictors / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Lacunar stroke is one of the most common ischemic stroke types in clinical practice at present. Its prognosis is generally better. However, studies have shown that about 20％ ～30％ of patients with lacunar stroke may have early neurological deterioration. This article reviews the pathophysiological mechanisms and predictors of early neurological deterioration in patients with lacunar stroke.
