Chronic vascular disease of the brain (dyscirculatory encephalopathies)

Abstract

Cerebrovascular disease is one of the most common causes of disability and mortality among the population. The diseases are divided into acute cerebrovascular disorders and chronic brain vascular diseases (CBVD), which in this country are more widely known as "dyscirculatory encephalopathy" (DE). This term is used to denote cerebrovascular pathology that develops in the event of multiple focal and/or diffuse brain lesions, while the progression of neurological and psychiatric disorders may be conditioned by a stable and long lasting cerebrovascular insufficiency and/or repeated dyscirculation events occurring as acute clinical symptoms (acute cerebrovascular disorders) or subclinically.
