Cerebrovascular Disease. The word cerebrovascular is made up of two parts â cerebro which refers to the large part of the brain, and vascular which means arteries and veins. Together, the word cerebrovascular refers to blood flow in the brain. The term cerebrovascular disease includes all disorders in which an area of the brain is temporarily or permanently affected by ischemia or bleeding and one or more of the cerebral blood vessels are involved in the pathological process.
The gastrovascular cavity is the primary organ of digestion and circulation in two major animal phyla: the Cnidaria (including jellyfish and corals) and Platyhelminthes (flatworms).The cavity may be extensively branched into a system of canals.In cnidarians, the gastrovascular system is also known as the coelenteron, and is commonly known as a blind gut or blind sac, since food enters and waste exits through the same orifice.he cavity may be extensively branched into a system of canals.
