Takeaway
Specific clinical profiles associated with cerebral arteriopathies in children with arterial ischemic stroke (AIS) may serve as a guidance in the management of these cases.
Why this matters
Identifying and classifying cerebral arteriopathies in children is challenging in clinical practice due to the imaging technique, inconsistent and inaccurate diagnosis, and lack of standardized terminology and diagnostic criteria.
Determining the clinical profiles of different arteriopathy subtypes may assist in the diagnosis and classification of childhood cerebral arteriopathies.
