Abstrakt | Vascular dementia is defined as a clinical syndrome of acquired impairment of intellectual function resulting from brain injury due to cerebrovascular disorder. It is estimated that 5 - 10% of patients with dementia and 15.6 - 26.8% of patients with cerebrovascular disorder, respectively, suffer from vascular dementia. Clinical state depends on the anatomic localization of the lesion(s) divided into cortical and subcortical syndromes, focal and multifocal infarctions. Vascular dementia can be classified into following subtypes: multi-infarct dementia, single-infarct dementia, border-zone dementia, lacunar dementia, white-matter dementia, cerebral amy- loid angiopathy dementia. No specific treatment is known, thus secondary prevention of the cerebrovascular disorder is important. | |
