What is lacunar infarction in the right basal ganglia?

Lacunar cerebral infarction mainly refers to small artery occlusion cerebral infarction, which is a small penetrating artery in the deep part of cerebral hemisphere and brain stem. On the basis of risk factors such as long-term hypertension, vascular wall lesions occur, and finally lumen occlusion causes ischemic necrosis of brain tissue in arterial blood supply area, so it shows a kind of clinical syndrome of acute neurological deficit. Basal ganglia region is located in the deep white matter of the brain, mainly including the internal capsule, thalamus, lentiform nucleus, caudate nucleus, claustrum nucleus, etc., and small vessel infarction occurs in this region of the right hemisphere of the brain, called lacunar cerebral infarction in the right basal ganglia region. It can mainly cause hemiparesis or mild hemiparesis of the contralateral limbs, or sensory disorders and hemiparesis. Generally speaking, lacunar cerebral infarction causes relatively mild symptoms and often recovers well after treatment.
