According to media reports, our Sherlock Holmes has already suffered a third cerebral infarction. He underwent angiography, and after the blood clot was removed, Vasily Borisovich is conscious, and further prognosis is generally positive.

In older patients with minor stroke lesions, the dynamics of recovery, as a rule, are very positive,” the specialist reassured.
