Abstract
Childhood arterial ischemic stroke is one of the most time-critical pediatric emergencies but is often diagnosed with a prognostically relevant time delay. The reasons are low awareness, sometimes unspecific clinical presentation with a wide variety of critical differential diagnoses and less coordinated acute care structures. The revascularization strategies established for adults also show sometimes spectacular success in children. These should therefore also be made available for affected children if possible, although the evidence is nowhere near comparable. In the postacute phase the etiological work-up is complex due to the risk factors which need to be considered, but identification of the individual risk profile is essential as it defines secondary prevention, risk of recurrence and outcome. The long-term care in a multiprofessional, interdisciplinary team must take into account all bio-psycho-social aspects of the child in the current developmental phase.
