Two main types of stroke: ischemic and hemorrhagic. An ischemic stroke occurs when a blood clot (thrombus) blocks a brain artery, leading to reduced blood flow and oxygen deprivation (anoxia) in the affected brain tissue. A hemorrhagic stroke happens when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures, causing bleeding (hemorrhage) that damages surrounding brain tissue. Both types disrupt blood supply to parts of the brain, leading to cell death and loss of neurological function.
