Early Hyperglycemia Is Associated With Poor Gross Motor Outcome in Asphyxiated Term Newborns
Conclusions: High blood glucose in the first 12 hours is associated with poor gross motor outcome in this cohort of asphyxiated term infants. Clinicians should avoid hyperglycemia in managing term infants with asphyxia.

Internuclear opthalmoplegia as a symptom of ischemic stroke in a child with patent foramen ovale (PFO)
A 16-year-old previously healthy female presented with sudden diplopia and dizziness. Both symptoms appeared on the day of admission, soon after waking up in the morning. The day before admission she complained of a headache followed by transient numbness in the right half of her face. Neurological examination revealed typical signs of internuclear ophthalmoplegia (limitated adduction in the left eye with a horizontal nystagmus in the right eye during attempted right gaze, Fig. 1a,b,c,d).

Internuclear Opthalmoplegia as a Symptom of Ischemic Stroke in a Girl With Patent Foramen Ovale
A previously healthy 16-year-old girl presented with sudden-onset diplopia and dizziness. Both symptoms appeared on the day of admission, soon after awakening in the morning. The day before admission, she complained of a headache followed by transient numbness in the right half of her face. Neurological examination revealed an internuclear ophthalmoplegia (limited adduction in the left eye with a horizontal nystagmus in the right eye during attempted right gaze, Figure A-D).

‘Wrong side’ tongue deviation in hemiplegia due to stroke
A previously healthy 10 year-old right-handed boy presented with acute left arm and left leg weakness soon after exercises during football practice. Examination revealed dense left-sided hemiplegia sparing the face associated with ipsilateral tongue deviation (Figure 1 A), vertical upbeat nystagmus, left sided hyporeflexia and a left Babinski reflex. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain and cervical cord showed restricted diffusion and the corresponding hypointesity in ADC (apparent diffusion coefficient) at left caudal anterior medulla and left antero-lateral cervico-medullary junction due to acute ischemic infarctio...

“Wrong Side” Tongue Deviation in Hemiplegia from Stroke
A previously healthy 10-year-old right-handed boy presented with acute left arm and leg weakness soon after football practice. Examination revealed dense left hemiplegia sparing the face associated with ipsilateral tongue deviation (Fig A), vertical upbeat nystagmus, left hyporeflexia, and a left Babinski reflex. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and cervical cord showed restricted diffusion and the corresponding hypointensity in the apparent diffusion coefficient at the left caudal anterior medulla and left anterolateral cervicomedullary junction resulting from acute ischemic infarction in left anterior spinal arte...

Focal cerebral arteriopathy: The face with many names
Focal cerebral arteriopathy is a term used to describe patients with unilateral intracranial arteriopathy involving the distal internal carotid artery and proximal segments of the middle and anterior cerebral artery. We aimed to describe the disease course of 10 pediatric arterial ischemic stroke patients with focal cerebral arteriopathy from a single quaternary-care center.

Late cerebrovascular complications after radiotherapy for childhood primary central nervous system tumors
The management and prognosis of childhood primary central nervous system tumors (PCNST) improved significantly in the last decades. In certain types of childhood PCNST, brain radiotherapy (RT) is valuable treatment option 1, 2, 3. Regardless of RT optimization, damage to surrounding normal brain tissue still occurs 3. Indeed, RT is an established cause of endothelial dysfunction 4 and a risk factor for late cerebrovascular complications (LCCs) such as cavernoma, moyamoya syndrome, microbleeds and stroke 2, 5-13.

Two Cases of Cerebrovascular Accidents in Neonates With Incontinentia Pigmenti
We report two infants who were diagnosed as IP at birth and subsequently developed seizures because of cerebral infarcts at 6 and 27 days of age. These patients remind physicians to consider the risk of stroke in neonates with IP.

Pediatric giant cell glioblastoma mimicking hemorrhage secondary to ischemic stroke
An eight-year-old girl presented with headaches, nausea, and diminished consciousness. Initial computed tomography (CT) showed an intracerebral hemorrhage with mass effect (Fig. 1). A four-vessel catheter angiogram ruled out vascular malformations, aneurysms or vasculitis. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the hemorrhage had both an acute and sub-acute bleeding component (Fig. 2A and 2B). Anteriorly of the hemorrhage, a region with weak contrast enhancement was noted (Fig. 2C and 2D). This was interpreted as reactive contrast enhancement.

Prognostication Value of Descending Corticospinal Tract DWI signal in Neonatal Cerebral Sinovenous Thrombosis: A Case Report
Descending corticospinal tract diffusion-weighted MRI signal (DCST DWI) is predictive of poor motor outcome in neonatal and childhood arterial ischemic stroke (AIS). However, DCST DWI has not been documented in the setting of cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT) and its role is not understood.
