Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy, usually called CADASIL, is an inherited condition that affects small arteries (blood vessels) mainly in the brain. An abnormality in the smooth muscle cells surrounding these blood vessels causes the gradual destruction of these cells, which can lead to migraines, stroke-like episodes, dementia, and other impairments of normal brain function. CADASIL patients are also at increased risk of heart attack (m...

A stroke happens when blood flow to the brain stops. There are two different kinds of stroke. The most common is an ischemic stroke, caused by a blood clot that blocks a blood vessel or artery in the brain. The other, less common, is a hemorrhagic stroke, caused when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures and spills blood into the surrounding tissue. Brain cells in the area begin to die, either because they stop getting the oxygen and nutrients they need to function, or they are killed by the rupt...

CADASIL ( c erebral a utosomal d ominant a rteriopathy with s ubcortical i nfarcts and l eukoencephalopathy) is the most common form of hereditary stroke disorder, and is thought to be caused by mutations of the Notch 3 gene on chromosome 19 . The most common clinical manifestations are migraine headaches and transient ischemic attacks or strokes, which usually occur between 40 and 50 years of age, although MRI is able to detect signs of the disease years prior to clinical manifestation of disease. ...
