Mineralizing vasculopathy, a cause of pediatric stroke, may also present as isolated motor delay in infants. This finding suggests silent strokes might be an early sign of this condition.
Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Pediatrics
- Vascular Medicine
Background:
- Childhood stroke has diverse etiologies, with new causes continually identified.
- Mineralizing vasculopathy affecting lenticulostriate vessels is a recognized cause of infantile stroke, often linked to minor head trauma.
- However, its role in isolated motor delay preceding overt stroke has not been previously documented.
