Abstract
Ischaemic stroke (CVA) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality at a global and national level. We studied 35 patients, determined the arteries that presented a higher frequency of occlusion in acute ischemic stroke and identified the middle cerebral artery and the poste- rior cerebral artery. We consider it necessary that specialists can locate anatomically strokes in order to apply neuroprotective therapies to improve treatment options and preventing secondary obstructions.
