Abstract:
Objective To study the etiology,clinical features and prognosis of cardiogenic cerebral embolism.Methods Cardiogenic cerebral embolism patients in the ward of Department of Cerebral vessels from April 2007 to December 2007 were registered prospectively,and then the clinical data of the patients after 3 months follow-up were analyzed.Results 72 patients were included,49 patients had atrial fibrillation.At the end of the 3 month-follow-up,15 patients were dead,the total mortality was 20.8%.25 patients must depend on others to live on.Conclusion Atrial fibrillation was the most common etiology of cardiogenic cerebral embolism.Internal carotid artery systerm was easier to form embolism than vertebrobasilar systerm.Compared with vertebrobasilar systerm,internal carotid artery systerm was much worse on nerve function impairment and prognosis.Positive measures must be taken to prevent and treat primary cardiopathy,and reduce the rate of cardiogenic cerebral embolism.
