Abstract

Multi-infarct dementia (MID) is a heterogeneous entity in which a variety of cerebrovascular disorders leads to intellectual impairment. A variety of patterns of behavioral changes may be observed in MID, depression, psychosis, and personality change are common. The neurobehavioral syndromes of MID are determined by the specific arteries involved and the location and extent of tissue infarction.
