Abstract

The article deals with vascular cognitive impairment. Particular attention is paid to the defeat of the frontal lobes in this pathology. It is stressed that memory disorders are rarely dominant in the clinical picture of the disease, often leading value is "frontal" syndrome. We consider the relation of the front of the brain with other structures of the central nervous system. Analyzes the importance of fluctuations in blood pressure when cognitive disorders of vascular origin. It stresses the importance of neuroplastic processes in vascular dementia.
