Rare and Hereditary Causes of Stroke. Rare and Hereditary Causes of Stroke. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that supplies blood to the brain is blocked (ischemic stroke), leaks or bursts (hemorrhagic stroke), damaging or killing nerve cells in the brain. As a result, the part of the body controlled by the damaged area of the brain cannot work properly.
A stroke occurs when the flow of blood to part of the brain is significantly reduced or blocked. Often, this results in the death of brain cells, which can lead to permanent damage or even death. The most common cause of stroke is a blood clot. AFib puts patients at an increased risk for stroke because blood may not be properly pumped out of the heart, which may cause it to pool and form a clot. This clot can then travel to the brain and block the flow of blood to part of the brain which can result in a stroke.
