Chapter 11.Cerebrovascular Disorders
Sections
Excerpt
Cerebrovascular disease encompasses a wide range of disorders, including transient cerebral ischemia, cerebral infarction, and hemorrhagic phenomena caused by hypertension and other more rare conditions such as vascular malformations and amyloid angiopathy. In this chapter, we review the major neuropsychiatric disorders associated with stroke, such as depression, anxiety, manic syndromes, apathy, pathological affective display (PAD), and the catastrophic reaction (Figure 11–1). We present the frequency, phenomenology, clinical correlates, and treatment of these disorders, and we also provide critical discussion about the conceptualization of these disorders.
