Lecture Plan
• Classification of Stroke in Young Adults.• Classical Clinical Histories in Children.• Study Hypothesis.• Study Methods.• Study Results.• Discussion.• Conclusion.
A Classical Dichotomy
• Adult Stroke Background.• Stroke in Young Adults (< 40 y).• Symptomatic Forms (dissections…).• Cryptogenic Forms (at least 40%).• Connecting Departments.
And Classical Histories…
Lea, 5 years old. Right hemiparesis. Lateral Lenticulo Striate (LLS).M1 stenosis. Varicella. Aspirin. Good Recovery.
Study Hypothesis
• Are Childhood Cryptogenic Strokes doing Better than Symptomatic Ones ?
Study Methods (1)
• Age: 3 months to 16 years.• Arterial Ischemic Strokes (AIS) Bernard Stroke 2012
• Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA) Albers NEJM 2002
• Classification of Cerebral Arteriopathies Bernard Stroke 2012, Sébire Lancet 2006
– Dissections– Transient Cerebral Arteriopathies (TCA)– Post-Varicella Arteriopathies (PVA)– Moya-moya, others…
Study Methods (2)
Symptomatic
Clear Mechanism
Cryptogenic
No Clear Mechanism After Extensive Work-Up
Risk Factors Only
Altieri Stroke 2009
Study Methods (3)
• Inclusion: age, AIS or TIA.• Retrospective, single center, ICD-9 and 10.• Primary Endpoints:– Recurrences: new AIS/TIA 2 w after index stroke– Death.– NIS.
• Secondary Endpoints:– Radiological Evolution of Arteriopathies.

Discussion
• Childhood Cryptogenic Strokes Do Better Than Symptomatic Ones
• Recurrences In Literature: 5-7% IdiopathicSträter 2002, Fullerton 2007
• Definition (timing) of Recurrences +++• PVA: symptomatic or cryptogenic ?• Follow-Up• Retrospective = Biases
Conclusion
• Childhood Cryptogenic Stroke.• Multiple Risk Factors.• Aspirin.• To be Validated with EBM.
• Evidence – Ethics – Common Sense
