Pathomorphological and pathogenetic features of acute brain infarction in the middle cerebral artery circulation (review)

The article presents the data on pathomorphological and pathogenetic features of the acute brain infarction in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) circulation. We have analyzed more than 38 research papers published in 2010-2020 and distributed in PubMed, eLibrary.ru, Medscape, Cochrane Library, and Medical NDX databases. Due to the wide prevalence, huge socio-economic significance, as well as high mortality rates of patients with brain infarction in the MCA basin, the coverage of issues and further study of the pathomorphological and pathogenetic aspects of this disease is extremely important for the timely diagnosis of acute complications and the use of modern methods of complex treatment.
