Cerebral thrombosis is a type of stroke that occurs when a blood clot forms in one of the arteries supplying blood to the brain. This blockage prevents oxygen and nutrients from reaching brain cells, which can lead to cell damage or death. Symptoms may include sudden weakness, difficulty speaking, or loss of coordination. The condition is often associated with risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol. Treatment typically involves medications to dissolve the clot and restore blood flow, along with lifestyle changes to reduce the risk of future strokes.
