The most common presenting symptom was hemiplegia(30 of 36).Other children presented with aphasia(5 of 36),seizures(5 of 36),altered consciousness(5 of 36)and hemisensory changes(5 of 36.Four of 6 patients with bilateral lesions presented with altered mental status but the location of a unilateral infarction within the thalamus or basal ganglia did not predict the clinical presentation.The risk factors for basal ganglia infarction in children are diverse,but systemic hypertension does not play a major role in children.The vascular occlusion often occurred in the large arteries with secondary occlusion of the smaller penetrating arteries.Most children with a single unilateral infarction have a good prognosis. |
