There is no cure for small vessel brain disease; however, if the condition is detected early there are good chances of preventing dementia and other problems. The aim of treatment is to address the risk factors such as hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes so that some of the symptoms can be reversed.

I67. 9 - Cerebrovascular disease, unspecified. ICD-10-CM.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I67. 82 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I67.
Microvascular ischemic disease is a brain condition that commonly affects older people. Untreated, it can lead to dementia, stroke and difficulty walking. Treatment typically involves reducing or managing risk factors, such as high blood pressure, cholesterol level, diabetes and smoking.
I67. 89 - Other cerebrovascular disease | ICD-10-CM.
Coronary small vessel disease is a condition in which the walls of the small arteries in your heart — the tiny branches off the larger coronary arteries — are damaged and don't dilate properly. Your small vessels need to expand to provide oxygen-rich blood to your heart.
Cerebral ischemia or brain ischemia, is a condition that occurs when there isn't enough blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. This leads to limited oxygen supply or cerebral hypoxia and leads to the death of brain tissue, cerebral infarction, or ischemic stroke.
Small vessel disease is the most common cause of vascular dementia, which is the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer's disease. Risk factors for small vessel disease include high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, too much fat in the blood, lack of exercise and some dietary factors like too much salt.
Small vessel ischemic disease is a common radiographic mimic of MS. Like MS, it can produce multiple focal lesions in the subcortical white matter; however, unlike MS, the lesions typically spare the U-fibers and do not involve the cerebellum or corpus callosum.
Now, perhaps the best technical term for what I'm referring to is “cerebral small vessel disease.” But many other synonyms are used by the medical community — especially in radiology reports. They include: Small vessel ischemic disease. White matter disease.
Background. Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is a frequent finding on CT and MRI scans of elderly people and is related to vascular risk factors and cognitive and motor impairment, ultimately leading to dementia or parkinsonism in some.
I63. 9 - Cerebral infarction, unspecified | ICD-10-CM.
ICD-10 code Z86. 73 for Personal history of transient ischemic attack (TIA), and cerebral infarction without residual deficits is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
A disorder resulting from inadequate blood flow in the vessels that supply the brain. Representative examples include cerebrovascular ischemia, cerebral embolism, and cerebral infarction. A spectrum of pathological conditions of impaired blood flow in the brain.
Broad category of disorders of blood flow in the arteries and veins which supply the brain; includes cerebral infarction, brain ischemia, brain hypoxia, intracranial embolism and thrombosis, intracranial arteriovenous malformations, etc; not limited to conditions that affect the cerebrum, but refers to vascular disorders of the entire brain. ...
