[Atherosclerotic changes in the aorta of patients with ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke].
Clinico-pathological analysis of 207 patients dying after stroke was performed. The occurrence of atherosclerotic lesions in the aortic arch, thoracic and abdominal parts of aorta were compared in patients dying of ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke. Advanced atherosclerotic lesions in the arch of aorta were rare in patients with ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke. Moderate atherosclerotic lesions in the aortic arch were observed more frequently in ischaemic than in haemorrhagic stroke. Advanced atherosclerotic lesions in thoracic and abdominal part of aorta occurred with the same frequency in ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke.
