What are the classifications of cerebellar atrophy? There are several types of cerebellar atrophy

The five main types of brain atrophy:

1. Hereditary cerebral atrophy.

It is divided into chromosomal dominant and recessive inheritance, and is clinically divided into spinal cord type, spinocerebellar type, cerebellar type and peripheral type according to the pathological characteristics, which is also the classification of brain atrophy.

2. Localized cerebral atrophy.

Brain tissue degeneration caused by local brain tissue lesions or local cerebral malacia caused by surgery can produce localized atrophy in and around the lesion site, also known as some kind of encephalopathy or sequelae of brain injury, which is also one of the common types of brain atrophy in several types of brain atrophy.

3. Degenerative brain atrophy.

It is a common and frequent senile disease with different degrees of atrophy and degeneration of the brain, cerebellum and olive bridge, resulting in brain dysfunction, neurological dysfunction and dementia. For elderly patients, degenerative brain atrophy is a physiological necessity, but the time and degree of clinical occurrence vary greatly, with age, there is a certain degree of sluggishness, memory loss is mostly physiological, premature, obvious symptoms should pay attention to prevention and **.

4. Brain atrophy.

Clinically, motor dysfunction, memory loss and unresponsiveness are common. This is one of the subtypes of cerebral atrophy.

5. Cerebellar atrophy.

Clinically, gait instability, ataxia, slurred speech, choking cough and so on are common.

1.Transmissibility.

Such as spinocerebellar degeneration (SCA), Friedreich ataxia, dentate nucleus, globus pallidus, Lewy body atrophy, etc.

2.Denaturation.

Multiple system atrophy cerebral type (MSA-C).

3.Ischemic-hypoxic.

Carbon monoxide poisoning.

4.Drug intoxication.

Phenytoin. 5.Inflammatory.

Sequelae of acute cerebellia.

6.Alcoholism.

Alcoholic cerebellar degeneration.

7.Other. Neurological paraneoplastic syndromes.

Cerebellar atrophy, ataxia, and multiple system atrophy are progressive diseases that can eventually lead to paralysis and inability to take care of themselves.

1. Adjust the airflow in the mouth through breathing exercises.

Breathing exercises can be used to strengthen the adjustment of airflow, oral movements to drive the movement of the tongue, exercise the coordination of local muscle movements, and maintain normal speech function, which can promote the recovery of patients with cerebellar atrophy who already have speech disorders.

2. Improve patients' interest through various forms of exercise.

It is difficult for patients to adhere to simple speech training for a long time, so it is necessary to enrich the training content in the form of tongue twisters, storytelling, questions, etc., to stimulate the patient's interest in practice, and family members should also supervise the patient to help the sick person recover faster.

3. Stand and step.

Stand with your legs together, hold the back of the chair with your hands, and do a stepping motion, raising your legs as high as possible, repeating 10 times on each leg.

1.Cerebellar atrophy mainly due to cerebellar pathological changes: clinical instability of gait, ataxia, slurred speech, choking cough, etc. Sharp.

2.Cerebral atrophy with cerebral cortex atrophy as the main pathological change: memory loss and unresponsiveness.

3.Hereditary cerebral atrophy: It can be divided into Yuanqing autosomal dominant and recessive inheritance, and genetic testing is often required to confirm the diagnosis.

4.Localized cerebral atrophy: It is brain tissue degeneration or trauma caused by local brain tissue lesions, and local cerebral malacia caused by surgery, which can produce localized atrophy in and around the lesion site.

5.Degenerative brain atrophy: It is a common and frequent senile disease with cerebral dysfunction, neurological dysfunction and dementia as the main manifestations due to different degrees of atrophy and degeneration of the brain, cerebellum and pontine olive.

Hereditary ataxia is a group of disorders characterized by progressive balance disorders and limb coordination movement disorders. Due to the complex nature of genetic heterogeneity and phenotypic variation, it is difficult to make an accurate diagnosis based on phenotype alone. Typical cases include progressive walking difficulties, clumsiness, speech or visual disturbances, nystagmus, chanted language, dysmetria, tremor, and gait ataxia.

Name: Mr. Zhang.

Age: 78 years old.

Course of disease: 10 years ago, the symptoms of "cerebellar ataxia" were diagnosed and gradually worsened. Dizziness with tinnitus, weakness of the legs, inability to walk independently, long-term bed rest, inability to take care of urine and urine, slurred speech, insomnia, choking on food, and intention tremor.

Now**: Brain Walking Soup**.

After a course of treatment: sleep quality has improved, dizziness and tinnitus have improved.

After three courses of treatment: dizziness and tinnitus are getting better and better, walking has improved, speech has been relieved, urine and bowel movements have improved, and sleep quality is getting better and better.

After ten courses of treatment: dizziness and tinnitus have recovered, muscle strength has basically recovered, being able to walk independently has been stable, speaking has been restored, swallowing and coughing have been recovered, urine and urine have been recovered, tremor has been recovered, and then continued to consolidate a course of treatment, the symptoms are basically non-existent, and now there is no recurrence in the ** return visit. (The drug compatibility of each course of Brain Jianbu Decoction is different, the same disease is different, and one-to-one syndrome differentiation is adopted, one disease for 10,000 people, one person for one person).

Suggestion: If the patient has ataxia and affects the gait, the patient's gait and posture must be corrected to improve the patient's quality of life. In addition, patients also need to replenish energy and nutrition, for this diet must be light, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.

If the patient is paralyzed in bed, it is necessary to strengthen the exercise of the limbs and strengthen the turning over and patting the back. to avoid pressure sores, lung infections, and deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities.

Cerebellar atrophy is not a disease but a neuroimaging finding. It can be seen not only in some hereditary and degenerative diseases, but also in some acute courses such as the late stage of acute cerebellitis and some drug poisoning, and even in some clinically asymptomatic people, cerebellar atrophy can also be seen in imaging examinations, especially in the elderly. Common features are decreased cerebellar volume and widened sulci on neuroimaging.

It can be divided into localized and generalized cerebellar atrophy. Because the cerebellum is mainly involved in the regulation of somatic balance and muscle tone, patients with cerebellar atrophy often have symptoms such as gait instability, ataxia, and slurred speech.

The manifestations of cerebellar atrophy are generally divided into three stages: early, middle and late, if the patient is found to have early symptoms, he should take the medication in time and according to the doctor's instructions to avoid serious impact on daily life.

1.Early cerebellar atrophy: the main manifestations are inflexible action response, dizziness when walking, and difficulty in lifting heavy objects; Uncoordinated legs, stiff muscles, inability to complete assigned movements, body shaking when standing, eye movement disorders, such as not being able to play table tennis.

2.Middle stage of cerebellar atrophy: motor disorders, muscle stiffness is significantly aggravated, speech is not clear, eating and drinking are easy to choke, walking like a penguin, swaying and unable to maintain balance, easy to fall, etc.

3.Advanced stage of cerebral atrophy: inability to distinguish speech, inability to control the tone, difficulty swallowing, inability to stand or sit up, inability to take care of oneself, and some patients' intelligence will also be affected.

In addition, if the patient is found to have early cerebellar atrophy symptoms, it is recommended that in addition to drug recuperation, he should go outdoors frequently to promote the normal operation of the brain and effectively alleviate cerebellar atrophy. Symptoms of cerebellar atrophy include ataxia, speech disorders, eye movement disorders, muscle dysfunction, and mental disorders. There may also be no obvious symptoms.

Cerebellar atrophy is a sign found during neuroimaging examinations such as CT and MRI of the head, which can be caused by genetics, drug intoxication, alcoholism, carbon monoxide poisoning, trauma, encephalitis, etc., and can also be the normal aging process of the brain.

Symptomatic manifestations of cerebellar atrophy ataxia at various stages:

Initial symptoms:

1. Walking is like getting drunk (dizziness).

2. The action response is less flexible, and it is difficult to lift heavy objects.

3. The legs are uncoordinated when going up and down the stairs, the muscles are stiff, and some specific actions cannot be completed accurately, such as running, climbing, playing ball, etc.

4. When standing still, the body will shake back and forth, and it is easy to splash out when carrying water. It is easy to bump into walls or door frames when walking.

5. There is an obstacle in eye movement, and the target cannot be quickly transferred.

6. Poor ability to distinguish distance, such as not being able to play table tennis.

Cerebral atrophy is a disease in which the brain tissue itself is atrophied due to organic lesions, and middle-aged and elderly people over 50 years old are the main incidence of cerebral atrophy. Long-term chronic ischemia of cerebral blood vessels is the main cause of cerebral atrophy, which can lead to dementia, mental retardation, personality changes, behavioral disorders and memory impairment.

According to the actual condition of the patient, we can divide brain atrophy into the following types:

1. Cerebellar atrophy is mainly due to pathological changes in the cerebellum, which will lead to clinical symptoms such as slurred speech, unsteady gait, choking cough and ataxia.

2. Cerebral atrophy also includes the type of cerebral atrophy, which mainly refers to the atrophic pathological changes in the cerebral cortex of the patient, which will lead to the symptoms of unresponsiveness, memory loss and motor dysfunction in the patient.

3. The occurrence of hereditary brain atrophy is mainly caused by genetic factors, and the occurrence of this hereditary brain atrophy often needs to be diagnosed by genetic testing.

4. Degenerative brain atrophy is a more serious type of brain atrophy, the occurrence of degenerative brain atrophy will lead to pathological changes of atrophy of the cerebellum, brain and surrounding tissues of patients, for the elderly, degenerative brain atrophy is an inevitable result that will occur in the process of life development.

5. In addition, there is a type of localized cerebral atrophy, which is mainly caused by trauma, surgery and other reasons that cause some abnormal lesions in the patient's local brain tissue.

Cerebellar atrophy is precisely a neuroimaging finding that is common in certain genetic disorders and neurodegenerative disorders. For patients with cerebellar atrophy, common symptoms include ataxia, language dysfunction, eye movement disorders, muscle dysfunction, and other imbalances.

1. Ataxia: decreased body coordination, symptoms such as unsteady standing, swaying walking, slightly stretched legs or scissor steps, and at the same time, unable to maintain balance, and irregular writing;

2. Language dysfunction: mainly due to the symptoms of ataxia of the lips, tongue, throat and other muscles, generally manifested as poetry-like speech, slurred speech, slow speech, pronunciation collision, etc.;

3. Ocular motility disorder: mainly eye muscle motility disorder, which will cause the left and right swing of the eyeball;

4. Muscle dysfunction: mainly due to decreased muscle tone, easy to choke when eating or drinking;

5. Others: Some cases are combined with cognitive impairment and movement disorders, such as senile dementia and spinocerebellar ataxia.

If the cerebellar atrophy is found by imaging examination, and there are the above symptoms, it is recommended to go to the neurology department in time to see a doctor, use drugs to treat the symptoms, and if the symptoms are severe, you need to cooperate with the training. In addition, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, develop good eating habits, and avoid using drugs that damage the brain tissue of hunger residue to avoid aggravating symptoms.

Cerebellar atrophy is mainly characterized by ataxia, which is manifested by muffled speech and decreased limb coordination.

1.Verbal symptoms:

The speech is slurred, the speech is slow, and the language is like poetry.

2.Limb symptoms.

The most typical limb symptom of cerebellar atrophy is ataxia, which is characterized by unsteady standing, unsteady gait, and a drunken gait.

If the patient is found to have cerebellar atrophy, it is recommended to see a doctor in time, with the help of a doctor, to clarify**, and carry out targeted treatment or **.

The symptoms of mental retardation, dementia, and cerebellar atrophy can be manifested as a comprehensive decline in intellectual activities such as understanding, judging, and calculating the ability to burn early, and the patient is unable to adapt to social life appropriately, and is difficult to do work and housework.
