[Aetiology, symptoms and complications of a paediatric stroke].
In children, as in adults, a stroke corresponds to an acute neurological deficit, secondary to an injury to the cerebral parenchyma which may be of haemorrhagic or ischemic origin, or both. The term 'stroke' comprises a number of pathologies which are extremely heterogenous in terms of physiopathology, risk factors, clinical presentation, evolution and treatment.
