What is basal ganglia hemorrhage?

Basal ganglia hemorrhage is a common form of intracerebral hemorrhage, and usually as a result of poorly controlled long-standing hypertension. The stigmata of chronic hypertensive encephalopathy are often present (see cerebral microhemorrhages). Other sites of hypertensive hemorrhages are the pons and the cerebellum.

What is right basal ganglia?

The basal ganglia are neurons deep in the brain that are key to movement, perception, and judgment. Neurons are brain cells that act as messengers by sending signals throughout the nervous system. Any injury to the basal ganglia can have serious, potentially long-term effects on your movement, perception, or judgment.

Where are the basal ganglia located?

The structures generally included in the basal ganglia are the caudate nucleus, putamen, and globus pallidus in the cerebrum, the substantia nigra in the midbrain, and the subthalamic nucleus in the diencephalon. The word basal refers to the fact that the basal ganglia are found near the base, or bottom, of the brain.

Is stroke and cerebral infarction the same?

A cerebral infarction (also known as a stroke) refers to damage to tissues in the brain due to a loss of oxygen to the area. The mention of “arteriosclerotic cerebrovascular disease” refers to arteriosclerosis, or “hardening of the arteries” that supply oxygen-containing blood to the brain.

Is basal ganglia hemorrhage a stroke?

The blood vessels in the basal ganglia are especially small and vulnerable to tearing or rupture. This is why basal ganglia strokes are often hemorrhagic strokes as well. About 13 percent of all strokes are hemorrhagic strokes.
