title: Stroke in the young. (Part I).
abstract: We have discussed some of the more common etiologic categories found in young patients with stroke. Though many of the causes are rare, in the aggregate they account for many of the conditions leading to stroke. In Part II of this series (July 1991), we will explore some of the less common causes of stroke in the young and outline an approach to the patient.
