Influence of hemodynamics on enlarged perivascular spaces in atherosclerotic large vessel disease.

CONCLUSIONS: The number of EPVS was increased in patients with atherosclerotic large vessel disease with hemodynamic compromise and decreased in the presence of a large stroke. EPVS might act as fluid absorbers in a hemodynamically compromised state until the occurrence of an ischemic stroke. PMID: 30156508 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
