Mineralizing microangiopathy: A rare cause of stroke in pediatric patients

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Mineralizing microangiopathy is an under-recognized etiology of pediatric stroke. In the years, trivial head trauma and its association with basal ganglia infarct have been frequently reported. We report a case of an infant presenting with neurological deficits following trivial head trauma. Computed tomography scan of the head was done which showed an infarct in the right lentiform nucleus and linear calcification along the lenticulostriate arteries in bilateral basal ganglia.
