Recanalization strategies in childhood stroke in Germany
Abstract Childhood arterial ischemic stroke (CAIS) is a rare event. Diverse etiologies, risk factors, symptoms and stroke mimics hamper obtaining a fast diagnosis and implementing immediate recanalization strategies. Over a period of 3 years (2015–2017), the data of 164 pediatric patients (> 28 d...
