Transient focal neurological episodes, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and intracerebral hemorrhage risk: looking beyond TIAs
This article emphasizes new observations on transient focal neurological episodes in the context of cerebral amyloid angiopathy, a common but under‐recognized small vessel disease most often encountered as a cause of symptomatic lobar intracerebral hemorrhage. Transient focal neurological episodes in cerebral amyloid angiopathy are of clinical and pathophysiological interest because they can mimic transient ischemic attacks, but are probably more often related to bleeding (especially superficial cortical siderosis or focal convexity sub‐arachnoid hemorrhage) rather than ischemia. Importantly, such episodes may also her...
