“…FMD is mainly a disease of middle age (9), and affects mostly one of the carotid arteries (1, 10). Stroke in children related to FMD affecting one of the carotid arteries is very rare (8,12). Even more rare is FMD-related cerebral infarction in the vertebro-basilar territory in children.…”

Eight cases of stroke in children treated with surgery are reported. Four of the patients had Moya-moya disease and presented with TIA. They were treated by surgically creating collaterals through the STA-MCA bypass, encephalomyosyangiosis and encephalomyoarteriosynangiosis operations. Three patients with traumatic or idiopathic carotid artery stenosis or occlusion presented with TIA and were treated with STA-MCA bypass. One patient with idiopathic carotid artery stenosis presented with a complaint of a continuous swishing noise in the ear and had a STA-MCA bypass followed by carotid artery ligation. Although stroke in children is usually secondary to systemic disease, there is a group of children with surgically treatable disease who need to be identified and treated. The potential benefit of surgery may depend on the promptness with which a definitive diagnosis is reached.
