Article Description

Perinatal arterial ischemic stroke (PAIS) is a common cause of seizures, encephalopathy, altered mental status, and focal neurologic deficits in the neonatal period. It is the leading known cause of cerebral palsy. Other long-term risks include the development of epilepsy and impairment in cognition, language, and behavior. This article will review the known risk factors for PAIS, as well as the evaluation, management, and prognosis. Long-term neurodevelopmental surveillance is recommended, along with intensive therapies to reduce morbidity.
