Stroke

418.668 - 446.308 Dr. Haitham Hussein

So that part of the brain then loses blood supply and suffers the damage, which we call ischemic stroke. The other kind is when the arteries burst or rupture. If the rupture is within the brain tissue, that is called intracerebral hemorrhage or hemorrhage within the brain. And if the rupture happens outside the brain tissue, then the blood is on the surface of the brain or around the brain.
