- Abstract: There are difficulties in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in medical community. Since the surgery of cervical deep lymphatic vessel/lymphatic node-vein anastomosis (LVA/LnVA) has made clinical improvement in patients with AD, it offers a surgical option to treat AD. Especially improvements in cognitive impairment. However the mechanism in treatment of AD is not yet made clear. This article preliminarily explores the mechanism in improvement of some symptoms in patients with AD through cervical deep LVA/LnVA on the basis of morphological characteristics of the cribriform plate-cervical lymphatic pathway.
