Development of Collateral Vessels after Anterior Circulation Large Vessel Occlusion in Pediatric Arterial Ischemic Stroke Relates to Stroke Etiology: A Longitudinal Study [NEUROVASCULAR/STROKE IMAGING]
CONCLUSIONS:
After stroke, the development of unilateral poststroke anastomotic bridge is specifically observed in children with focal cerebral arteriopathy, appearing in the first year after stroke. This clinical-radiologic pattern was not associated with stroke recurrence or arterial worsening, differentiating it from progressive intracranial arteriopathy, such as Moyamoya angiopathy.
