The difference between cerebral infarction cerebral thrombosis

Cerebral infarction is an acute ischemic stroke. Clinically, according to the pathogenesis, cerebral infarction is divided into several types, cerebral thrombosis, cerebral embolism, lacunar cerebral infarction, etc. Cerebral thrombosis refers to the detachment of intracranial vascular plaques to form thrombosis, resulting in cerebral vascular occlusion. Cerebral embolism refers to the detachment of cerebral emboli into cerebral blood vessels, resulting in cerebral vascular occlusion. Lacunar cerebral infarction is intracranial arteriolar hyaline change, resulting in small vascular infarction. Therefore, cerebral thrombosis is a type of cerebral infarction.
