The cause of the death of actor Epy Kusnandar has finally been revealed. According to his younger brother, Deniar Hendarsa, the actor experienced blockage of blood vessels in the brain trunk.

"The placement... in the brain stem," said Deniar in the South Jakarta area, Wednesday, December 3.

He explained that this part is a very vital center of life control, regulating breathing and movement.

Damar Rizal Marzuki, Epy's son, added that the health problem in the head was not new to his father. Previously, Epy was convicted of brain tumors.

"From the beginning, the Papap problem was indeed in the head. At that time there was also news of a tumor... brain tumor. And it has recovered," explained Damar.

However, after recovering from the tumor, there have been complaints of dizziness or lethargicness that he has often felt lately. Unfortunately, these symptoms are considered as ordinary dizziness.

"The doctor saw there, it should have started to get into the armband, that's how it was checked. But I thought yes... felt what was said earlier, felt he was healthy," regretted Damar.

Symptoms of dizziness turned out to be a sign of blockage of blood vessels. If it is known earlier when the body is still in good health, medical actions such as surgery may still be possible.

Unfortunately, the blockage was only detected after the condition was critical. "And now if this is completely closed... the blockage. So the critical condition was no longer possible," he continued.

According to the doctor, diseases related to the brain and heart can indeed come suddenly. Within seconds, the patient's condition can be immediately at a critical point.
