A heterogeneous group of sporadic or familial disorders characterized by AMYLOID deposits
in the walls of small and medium sized blood vessels of CEREBRAL CORTEX and MENINGES.
Clinical features include multiple, small lobar CEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE; cerebral ischemia
(BRAIN ISCHEMIA); and CEREBRAL INFARCTION. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is unrelated
to generalized AMYLOIDOSIS. Amyloidogenic peptides in this condition are nearly always
the same ones found in ALZHEIMER DISEASE. (from Kumar: Robbins and Cotran: Pathologic
Basis of Disease, 7th ed., 2005)
