Outcomes in Paediatric Lenticulostriate Saccular Aneurysms: A Case Report

Abstract

Saloni Sen

The lenticulostriate artery forms a crucial cog in the cerebrovascular juggernaut that supplies the rain. Despite its miniscule diameter and length, the artery is crucial because it supplies the interior capsule. Infarcts or hemorrhagic strokes of this artery are common owing to the small diameter of the artery and therefore the high-pressure gradient experienced in it. Strokes usually result in a hemiplegia or paresis, which may or may not improve over time. The most common cause for a lenticulostriate stroke is uncontrolled hypertension. T
