ABSTRACT
In a retrospective study, medical records of twenty one infants and children who were diagnosed for cerebrovascular disease, were analysed. Patients with history of head injury, brain tumor and intracranial infections were excluded from the study. Age ranged between six weeks and 12 years. Fourteen were boys and 7 girls. Ten patients (47%) had known underlying risk factor. Hemiparesis and seizures were commonest presenting features as well as long term neurological sequelae in survivors. CT scan was abnormal in all patients whereas, EEG was abnormal in 90% with 76% lateralizing effect.
