Significant epidemiological facts for stroke are different in children and adolescents than in adults. A wide range of causes and risk factors are available for assessment, which is not the case for older patients. Long-term outcome must be regarded by different aspects such as spontaneous remission or the neural plasticity of child brain. Stroke in childhood results in neurological and specific neuropsychological impairments which depend on phases of brain maturity. Special attention should be paid to psychosocial effects of the disease and the impairments that result.
儿童和青少年中风的重要流行病学事实与成人不同。有多种病因和风险因素可供评估，而老年患者则不然。必须从不同方面看待长期预后，如自发缓解或儿童大脑的神经可塑性。儿童期中风会导致神经和特定的神经心理损伤，这取决于大脑成熟阶段。应特别关注该疾病的社会心理影响以及由此导致的损伤。
