Why middle cerebral artery stroke is more common than anterior cerebral artery or posterior cerebral artery stroke?
because it is in continuity with internal carotid artry, usually embolus lodges there.
A lesion of the carotid artery may lead to?
STROKE
What is a flow void in a carotid artery?
Mostly because it has no valves, like veins do, so the flow in carotid arteries is a result of left ventricular contraction.Sometimes a flow in the carotid artery is due to a blockage and may be called a 'flow void' and this is a serious condition which can dislodge a thrombosis (Blood clot)and allow it to flow in the cardiovascular system as an embolism, which is a freely moving blood clot. It can get stuck in the lungs (pneumothorax) or in the brain (stroke).
If a blood clot blocks and artery in your brain will result in a?
"A stroke" is the answer you're looking for.
Which disease of the circulatory system contributes the both stroke and heart attack?

Can ophthalmoplegia happen with pituitary stroke?

What is Top-of-the-basilar syndrome?
A particular manifestation of stroke associated with with up or down gaze preference, Parinaud Syndrome, 3rd and 4th nerve palsies, nystgmas and other symptoms, in general confined to the opthalmic system (Although not exclusively.) It results from an embolus to the basilar artery.

What is carotid artery occlusion blockage?
Carotid artery occlusion blockage means that there is complete blockage of the artery. This is very serious, as complete blockage of the artery can cause a stroke.
Where does a stroke occur?
A stroke occurs in the brain. A stroke is when an artery is blocked by a blood clot. Strokes are common among elderly people who have high blood pressure.
Which blood vessel is most commonly implicated in a stroke?
The middle cerebral artery is the one most commonly blocked (occluded) in a stroke.
What are the negative affects of clogged arteries?
The negative affects of clogged arteries include coronary artery disease, carotid artery disease, peripheral artery disease and increased risk of heart attack and stroke.
What artery is clogged if you have a stroke?
A stroke is when a clot causes a thrombus (blockage of flow of blood) in the veins of the brain. The brain has multiple arteries that supply it with oxygen.
Is pie Hemorrhage a real type of stroke?
yes,which is when a type of stroke occurs when a defective artery in the brain bursts, flooding the surrounding tissue with blood.
How are the various types of stroke distinguished?
A stroke can be either ischemic, which is an interruption of blood flow in a narrowed carotid artery, or hemorrhagic, which involves bleeding in the brain.
