Abstract:
Post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) directly affects the outcome of patients with stroke. Enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) suggest the impairment of brain clearance mechanism and may affect cognitive function. More and more studies have confirmed that the presence of EPVS will aggravate PSCI. This article reviews the relationship between EPVS and PSCI.
