Abstract:

Objective: It is very important to study the factors affecting the incidence, progress and prognosis of patients with vascular dementia.  Methods: 50 cases of severe middle cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion underwent endovascular treatment (25 cases of mild cognitive dysfunction, 25 cases of moderate cognitive dysfunction) were divided into two groups, where a medical drug treatment group and a control group established with 25 cases in each group. The cognitive function of each group of patients was evaluated before operation, 7 days after operation, 30 days after operation, and 180 days after operation. CTP was used to compare the hemodynamic changes in patients before and after operation.  Results: The severe stenosis or occlusion of the middle cerebral artery in patients can be improved, and the intracranial blood supply of patients with poorly compensated medial cranial circulation and hypoperfusion can be restored to a certain extent. Meanwhile, improvement of cognitive function was definitive in some patients with cognitive dysfunction.  Conclusion: To guide the formulation of treatment plans for patients with severe middle cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion.
