Abstract:
Objective To study the characteristics of MRI Lesions in posterior circulation cerebral infarction and the correlation of the syndrome types of traditional Chinese medicine.Methods 82 patients with posterior circulation cerebral infarction from May 2012 to May 2015 were recruited, two observers estimated cranial MRI infarct size, location, and TCM syndrome type in the hospital medical records of the patients separately.Results Of all patients with posterior circulation cerebral infarction, patients with meridians involved infarction in the distant part of posterior circulation is far more than other parts of the posterior circulation(21 patient,P=0.006), nevertheless,patients with apoplexy involving Zang-fu organs,cerebral infarction volume is larger (14.78 ± 5.68 mlvs. 9.12 ± 6.67 ml,P=0.001).Conclusion Of all patients with posterior cerebral infarction, patients with meridians be involved, infarction in the distant part of posterior circulation is far more than other parts of the posterior circulation, nevertheless, in patients with apoplexy involving Zang-fu Organs, cerebral infarction volume is larger.
