My father aged 75 suddenly went unconscious 2 years back, had fall with head injury. He was admitted to hospital -
cerebral conscious - MRI says narrowing of blood vessels to brain. Ever since fall has loss of balance, loss of coordination, difficulty in sitting, standing, walking, dullness. Thrice he felt near fainting with sweating. His blood sugar fluctuates. Also his BP has difference between sitting and standing, whenever he changes position feels giddiness.
They will certainly investigate further as toruosity of the middle central artery can be associated with stroke. Your symptoms could be related to other things. The word slight is used at this time and it seems unclear what the severity of this situation. If you do indeed have toruosity of the M1 of the MCA, they will likely recommend treatment. Please let us know what your follow up with the neurologist is. We'll be following and wish you the best o health.
A CT scan was non specific, an MRI showed a massive stroke originating in the MCA decimating the basal ganglia, entire caudate and lentiform areas of the brain. She followed this first stroke with a hemorragic stroke further damaging the brain. Another point of interest is that your neck/head pain could possibly be migraine. Migraines come in different shapes and forms. Not just the I've got a migraine, I need to lay down for a while type.

I had an MRA of the brain that showed a possible aneurysm in the region of the MCA trifurcation. We did a follow up CTA that came back negative but the report read that there was no evidence of aneurysm in the region of the MCA "bifurcation." It did not mention "Trifurcation" as the first report did.

i am 51yo male. i had a TIA in Dec 2012. (didn't know what a TIA was at the time) Went to my doctor and he told me i was having 'stress/anxiety' symptoms. WRONG!!!!
2 weeks later i had a massive stroke. (right side of brain, MCA, left side impacted) now over a year later i'm still having issues.
Acute nonhemorrhagic left perisylvian and deep frontal white matter infarct (MCA territory). She had a mild stroke 4 years before on the right side and she is visiting the hospital every 1 or 2 months regularly to physician and he use to suggest the warf, etc. We felt that she was almost recovered but yet again she suffered as written above. Can you please suggest how to treat it? what are the implications?
My friend at age 43 had a left MCA stroke early of this month suddently as he has no high blood pressure, no high chlo, neither smoking nor drinking.

hi I was told 23rd april I have 2 aneurysms in mca area one x 3.5 bilobed other is 2.
Well, could be three things. First of all, just that you've still okay after a year and a half is good news. And of course I assume the obvious didn't happen back Christmas over a year ago, where you banged your head right there.
Sometimes the findings you report from the scans DO suggest you may have a bit of a swollen artery, but not blocked or burst, because THEN you would have vsion problems, a huuge huge headache, and you might pass out.
Have undergone clipping for traumatically caused symptomatic, non-ruptured right MCA aneurysm. Good result. Improvements in visual and auditory abnormalities, ataxia, muscle tone and weakness, balance, posture, speech, hemiplaegia, cognitive functions, pain, seizure disorder, post-traumatic migraine and ischaemia, etc..Looking for return to normalcy. Appropriate therapies? Any suggestions ?
The study enrolled patients who had 70 to 90 % narrowing of the arteries in the brain and had already experienced a mild stroke or a stroke-like event called a TIA ...... The scientist expected the stent to decrease the risk of stroke in patients also receiving aggressive medical management by 35% over two years. Instead 14.7% of patients who received the Gateway-Wingspan stenting system had a second stroke or died compared with the 5.8% who only took medication and modified their lifestyle.

Please help we what kind of treatment wil be suitable for my case? Gamma knife or embolization??? or any else..
Also for all of you who know a lot about embolization: tell me if the glue used in embolization is life long? can the avm come back in some cases???
I am not trying to scare you but a stroke is rather serious. Do some research and if you think the symptoms match up force her to see a doctor. whether she believes in them or not this could save her from having a more serious stroke, which could do anything from paralyzing one side of the body or even death. I'm sorry to scare or worry. As I said, I may be wrong, this is only a best guess from a college student, who works with children and took a first aid and cpr course.
