Abstract:
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an imported disease, and patients with SCD have obviously higher incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Stroke in SCD patients is quite different from those caused by atherosclerosis, and treatments and secondary prevention methods are also unique.
