Aetiology of stroke in young is often different to that of an older person. In nearly half of these cases no cause is established. Every effort should be explored to establish a cause as treatment varies accordingly and the prognosis with rehabilitation is favourable when compared with older people. We present a case of pontine infarct in a 43-year-old man due to vascular ectasia associated with neurofibromatosis type 1. Following the stroke, the patient went through intensive rehabilitation where he had a good functional outcome.
年轻人中风的病因通常与老年人不同。在近一半的此类病例中,病因未明。应尽一切努力查明病因,因为治疗方法会因病因不同而有所差异,而且与老年人相比,年轻人中风后康复的预后较好。我们报告一例43岁男性因与1型神经纤维瘤病相关的血管扩张导致脑桥梗死的病例。中风后,患者接受了强化康复治疗,功能恢复良好。
