Striatocapsular infarcts
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Striatocapsular infarcts can be defined as large (>20 mm) subcortical infarcts in the territory of the lenticulostriate arteries, sometimes extending into the territory of the adjacent deep perforators, for example Heubner’s recurring artery or the anterior choroidal artery. They do not usually present with a lacunar syndrome and are typically caused by a middle cerebral artery (MCA) mainstem lesion, and thus result from large vessel disease. Straitocapsular infarcts represent the prototype embolic brain infarction frequently are found in cases after successful thrombolysis. Collected evidence to support this hypothesis is reported in this chapter.
