Summary Cerebral infarction that affects young women is extremely serious, despite its low incidence, with mortality rates of nearly 20%. In the case of a pregnant woman it is a serious injury at as time of maximum personal and family development. Although theoretically cerebral apoplexy has very varied aethiopathological causes there are many young women in whom the principal cause is never found. The clinical neurological investigation needs to be supported by radiological diagnostic techniques to make an initial diagnosis between ischaemic or haemorrhage pathology. Cranial tomography will be indicated by the same criteria as in non pregnant patients, without threatening embryonic or foetal viability. The dosage of radiation used does not endanger foetal well-being, and it should help us try to predict maternal prognosis and to establish the most appropriate therapy. |
