儿童卒中研究进展

Stroke in Children

儿童卒中的危险因素及病因与成人显著不同,与成人卒中相关的危险因素(高血压、高血脂、糖尿病等)在儿童卒中很少见。而与儿童卒中相关的危险因素及病因主要包括脑动脉疾病、先天性心脏病、镰状细胞贫血和血液系统异常等。虽然儿童卒中发病率较低,但其复发危险率及致残致死率较高,严重影响患儿及家庭的生活质量。本文对儿童卒中的流行病学、发病危险因素及病因、治疗现状及预防建议做一综述。

The risk factors and etiology of stroke in children are different from that in adults. Hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus are major causes of stroke in adulthood. However, the causes of stroke in childhood are rather complicated. Cerebral arteriopathy, congenital diseases such as congenital heart disease, sickle cell disease and blood diseases are common diseases that resulting in stroke in children. Recurrence rate and mortality are higher in children stroke. This study will review the epidemiology, risk factors, etiologies, treatment and prevention of stroke in children.
