Background Stroke is a debilitating cerebrovascular condition characterized by sudden neurological deficits. The incidence of stroke is rising in India, posing significant public health concerns. This study aims to examine the risk factors and etiology of stroke using the Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment (TOAST) classification and analyze infarct areas in cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) at a tertiary care hospital. Methodology This cross-sectional, hospital-based observational study was conducted at Dr. D. Y. Patil Medical College, Hospital and Research Centre, Dr. D. Y. Patil Vidyapeeth (Deemed to Be University), Pune, India, from January 2023 to January 2024. The study included 100 adult patients diagnosed with CVA based on clinical and radiological criteria. Patients aged 18 years and older were eligible, while those with a history of head trauma or those below 18 years were excluded. The investigation protocol included routine biochemical assessments and radiological investigations, such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with angiography or venography, and Doppler ultrasound of bilateral carotid arteries. Results The study population consisted of 100 patients, with 84 males (84%) and 16 females (16%). Age distribution showed 44% were over 60 years old, 23% aged 51-60 years, 15% aged 31-40 years, 14% aged 41-50 years, and 4% aged 21-30 years. Hypertension was the most prevalent risk factor, affecting 75% of patients, with a higher occurrence in males (62%), compared to females (13%). Smoking was observed in 51% of patients, and alcohol consumption was seen in 50%. Other significant risk factors included dyslipidemia (39%), diabetes mellitus (33%), chronic kidney disease (11%), ischemic heart disease (10%), atrial fibrillation (4%), valvular heart disease (4%), and pregnancy or postpartum conditions (2%). Ischemic stroke was predominant, occurring in 80% of patients, while hemorrhagic stroke occurred in 20%. High occurrences of ischemic strokes were noted in the frontal lobe (41%), parietal lobe (37%), occipital lobe (27%), and temporal lobe (26%), with the internal capsule region also showing significant numbers (27%). According to the TOAST classification, the most prevalent cause of stroke in this study was undetermined etiology with two or more causes, accounting for 32% of cases, followed by large artery atherosclerosis, which accounted for 30%. Cardioembolic stroke was identified in 11% of the patients, with 4% due to atrial fibrillation, 3% due to acute myocardial infarction, 3% due to rheumatic valvular heart disease, and 1% due to infective endocarditis. Conclusion This study highlights the significant prevalence of hypertension, smoking, alcohol consumption, and hyperhomocysteinemia as major risk factors for stroke. Ischemic strokes were predominant, with high occurrences in the cerebral lobes and gangliocapsular region. These findings emphasize the need for targeted prevention strategies, including managing hypertension and lifestyle modifications such as smoking cessation and reducing alcohol consumption, to mitigate the risk of stroke. Effective management of blood pressure, lipid levels, and blood glucose is crucial for stroke prevention. Recognizing gender-specific differences and addressing comorbidities through an integrated approach can enhance patient outcomes and reduce the burden of stroke.
