Stroke is defined by the World Health Organization as a
clinical syndrome consisting of rapidly developing
clinical signs of focal (or global in case of coma)
disturbance of cerebral function lasting more than 24
hours or leading to death with no apparent cause other
than a vascular origin.
Broadly Pediatric stroke includes:
1) Ischemic stroke.
2)Hemorrhagic stroke.
In the penumbra, factors that increase the discrepancy between metabolic rate
and the delivery of oxygen and glucose may result in additional tissue injury and
cell death.

Transient Cerebral Arteriopathy (TCA)
A common syndrome affecting healthy school-age children.
Unilateral irregular stenosis of the proximal middle cerebral
artery and neighboring arteries presenting with basal ganglia
infarction.
Synonyms-Post varicella angiopathy (PVA) , nonprogressive
childhood primary angiitis of the central nervous
system(cPACNS), focal cerebral arteriopathy(FCA) .
Self-limited
Moya Moya Disease
Progressive occlusion of the distal internal carotid arteries.
Blood flow is blocked by the constriction, and also by thrombosis.
A collateral circulation develops around the blocked vessels to
compensate for the blockage, but the collateral vessels are small,
weak, and prone to bleeding, aneurysm and thrombosis. On
conventional MR angiography, these collateral vessels have the
appearance of a "puff of smoke" (described as (moyamoya) in
Japanese).
Moya Moya Disease-no underlying correlational conditions.
Usually arterial constriction and collateral circulation are bilateral.
Moya Moya Syndrome - Moyamoya syndrome is unilateral
arterial constriction and is associated with other conditions
like Neurofibromatosis type 1, Trisomy 21, Alagille
syndrome, Sickle cell anemia, Chromosomal
microdeletions/microduplications, Postirradiation.
Maintain normoglycemia
Management of seizures
General For all children with AIS treat with ASA 2 – 5 mg/kg/day
after anticoagulation therapy has been stopped
