We aimed to examine epidemiology and long term outcomes of childhood stroke patients, followed our department.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective study of enrolled pediatric stroke patients at a pediatric hematology department of a Children's Hospital. The disease presentations, prothrombotic risk factors, co-morbid conditions, stroke-related death or neurological deficits of the children followed-up with stroke diagnosis were recorded.RESULTS: A total of 115 children (min-max: 0-16.8 years, median age of diagnosis: 2 years, 49.6% girls) were included. Paresis or plegia (56.5%), convulsions (43.5%), and cranial nerve palsies (10.4%) were most common presentations. Co-morbid conditions were common (69%); the most common were infections (22.6%) and congenital cardiac diseases (20.8%). In 47.7% of the patients who presented with paresis or plegia, stroke was diagnosed within 30 days after stroke; the rest was diagnosed later. Among the determined prothrombotic risk factors, elevated homocysteine levels were the most common (27%), followed by factor V G1691A mutations (20%), and elevated lipoprotein (a) (19.1%) levels. Neurological sequel rate was 62.5%. Mortality rate was 2.6%.CONCLUSIONS: Childhood stroke is associated with a variety of co-morbid conditions and hereditary and acquired prothrombotic risk factors. Stroke in children has a high sequel rate. We think that, delayed diagnosis and treatment in our study group could be the reason for this result.
