Abstract

The article reviews the pathogenetic, clinical and therapeutic aspects of vascular dementia. The heterogeneity of this condition is emphasized. It is noted that pathological changes in the brain and clinical manifestations of these changes are characterized by certain "cerebral reserve". In contrast to Alzheimer's disease, mnestic disorders only are rarely dominate in the clinical performance of vascular lesions of the brain. The author presented data for the treatment of vascular dementia. Response to treatment should be carefully evaluated for each patient, given the relatively frequent occurrence of paradoxical reactions and side effects of therapy.
