Overview

The clinical features are cerebral ischemia (strokes), recurrent transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), sensorimotor paralysis (numbness and paralysis of the extremities), convulsions and/or migraine-like headaches. After an ischemic stroke, a hemorrhagic reperfusion stroke may occur. A hemorrhagic stroke may also stem from rupture of the weak neovascular vessel walls.

  • Stroke
  • TIA commonly referred to as mini-stroke
  • Muscular weakness or paralysis affecting one side of the body
  • Seizures
  • Disturbed consciousness
  • Speech deficits (usually aphasia)
  • Sensory and cognitive impairments
  • Involuntary movements
  • Vision problems
