There have been major recent advances in the investigation and treatment of transient ischaemic attacks, which represent an important prodrome of cerebral infarction. Medical therapy with aspirin reduces stroke risk, while warfarin has an important place in the prevention of cardiogenic cerebral embolism. Carotid endarterectomy is of proven value in symptomatic patients with severe carotid stenosis.
近期，短暂性脑缺血发作的研究和治疗取得了重大进展，短暂性脑缺血发作是脑梗死的重要前驱症状。使用阿司匹林进行药物治疗可降低中风风险，而华法林在预防心源性脑栓塞方面具有重要作用。对于有症状的严重颈动脉狭窄患者，颈动脉内膜切除术已被证明具有价值。
