Perinatal Arterial Ischemic Stroke: An Unusual Causal Mechanism

Abstract

Francesca Maria Russo, Giuseppe Paterlini and Patrizia Vergani

Perinatal Arterial Ischemic Stroke (AIS) is an important cause of neurological morbidity in infants. Some risk factors have been identified, but its pathogenesis remains unclear. We present a case of perinatal in which macroscopic examination of the placenta revealed the presence of a vasa praevia. We hypothesize that compression of the vasa praevia during labor could have determined the formation of thrombi, which were subsequently embolized into the fetal circulation causing perinatal AIS.
