Focal cerebral arteriopathies (FCA) are a possible cause of AIS in children characterized by an unilateral lesion of the terminal internal cerebral artery (ICA) and proximal segment (M1) of middle cerebral artery (MCA), leading to subocclusion, occasionally with a typical "striate" pattern and a tendency to stability or regression at follow-up. It is unclear whether in FCA the basic lesion is an inflammatory or a dissective arterial pathology. Herein we report a small series of children ( |
