Wcn25-3256 Study of Clinical Profile and Outcome of Cerebrovascular Disease in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients at a Tertiary Care Center

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Chronic kidney disease(CKD) is an independent risk factor for the development of cerebrovascular disease. Hypertension, Diabetes mellitus, Atherosclerosis, heparin usage, hyperlipidemia, hyperhomocystenemia, and protein malnutrition are cited as risk factors for stroke by several studies . Stroke may manifest as infarction, haemorrhage and sometimes in combination of these two. Infarcts were found to arise due to involvement of carotid or vertebrobasilar arteries. In hemorrhagic strokes the bleed was common in thalamic and basal ganglia regions.
