Abstract

Investigators at the Alberta Children’s Hospital Research Institute, University of Calgary; the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, and other centers in Canada screened Canadian pediatric stroke registries and the literature and found 81 cases (15 new, 66 from the literature) of pediatric stroke associated with fibromuscular dysplasia or renal arteriopathy.
