D
Vertebrobasilar Stroke
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is the most common, chronic and progressive vascular disease. The changes affect arterioles, capillaries and small veins supplying the white matter and deep structures of the brain. It is the most common incidental finding on brain scans, especially in people over 80 years of age.

Detailed explanation-2: -Untreated microvascular ischemic disease can lead to serious, life-threatening complications. These include stroke and severe cognitive decline. If you follow your personalized treatment plan, you may be able to slow the progression of the condition and lead a healthy, independent life.

Detailed explanation-3: -The common pathologies underlying cSVDs are arteriolosclerosis caused by aging, hypertension, and other conventional vascular risk factors and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) caused by vascular deposition of -amyloid.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chest pain, squeezing or discomfort (angina), which may get worse with activity or emotional stress. Discomfort in the left arm, jaw, neck, back or abdomen along with chest pain. Shortness of breath. Tiredness and lack of energy. 09-Nov-2021
