The headache became more and more intense, he fell asleep.

Doctor Nguyen Van Tuyen, Director of the Stroke Center, diagnosed the patient with a stroke. MRI images detected a ruptured cerebral vascular malformation.

Luckily, the doctors successfully removed the vascular malformation and is now out of danger.

Doctor Tuyen commented that it is not uncommon for such young patients to have a stroke.

The nurse examined the patient, on the morning of December 11.

Dr. Tuyen said that there are many causes of stroke in young people, of which cerebral vascular malformations are one of the leading causes of brain hemorrhage.

Cerebrovascular malformations can be congenital or take many years to form.

The doctor believes that it is only necessary to have a cerebral angiogram once every year, so this cost is not expensive.

When bleeding in the brain is caused by a ruptured vascular malformation, symptoms will occur immediately, after only a few seconds.

To avoid life-threatening events, doctors recommend that not only the elderly need a cerebral angiogram, but also that young people should have a screening scan, at least once during their younger years.

In addition to cerebral vascular malformations, there are many factors that cause stroke, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, hyperlipidemia, smoking, sedentary, unhealthy lifestyle, stressful work, etc.

For young people, to reduce the risk of stroke, it is necessary to have regular health checks to screen for risk factors and receive early treatment.
