Stroke and NonStroke Brain Attacks in Children
Neurol 82:1434-1440, Mackay, M.T.,et al, 2014
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The most common diagnoses included migraine (28%), seizures (15%), Bell palsy (10%), stroke (7%), and conversion disorders (6%). Relative proportions of conditions in children significantly differed from adults for stroke, migraine, seizures, and conversion disorders. Brain attack etiologies differ from adults, with stroke being the fourth most common diagnosis. These findings will inform development of ED clinical pathways for pediatric brain attacks.
