Cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral aneurysms, cerebral arteriovenous malformations causing cerebral hemorrhage in young people (aged 25 – 43 years) are increasingly common.
“80% of brain aneurysms cases come to the hospital in broken condition” (According to the Department of Neurosurgery, Da Nang Hospital). Many people have headaches, thinking they have vestibular disorders or cerebral ischemia, leading to improper treatment and the disease is not definitively treated. The bleeding location ruptures cause a stroke, causing the patient to experience a sudden, severe headache, dizziness, vomiting, and in many cases, taking painkillers did not work.
Currently, with modern technology and equipment, cerebrovascular diseases can be detected early and treated by:
- The first method is surgical removal of the deformed lesion or microsurgical aneurysm clamping.
- The second method is endovascular intervention to block the aneurysm or occlude the branches into the cerebral vascular malformation by embolizing materials.
- Endovascular intervention causes partial occlusion of the malformation, then surgery is performed to remove the entire malformation for complete treatment.
Through this incident, SSVN hopes that you will have regular health screening to identify brain vascular malformations, or other blood pressure and cardiovascular problems to detect early risks and prevent timely. Besides, equipping yourself with first aid skills so that you can protect your loved ones when they have sudden signs of stroke.
