Multi-infarct dementia.

V Hachinski.   

Abstract

Arteriosclerosis causes damage by strokes. No evidence exists for continuous ischemia in the brain. Decreased cerebral blood flow and metabolism are the result not the cause of dementia so the use of cerebral vasodilators and "activators" lacks a scientific basis. Instead, the treatment and prevention of multi-infarct dementia consist in the treatment and prevention of stroke.
