Stroke in children is an important public health problem because, even if it is 10 folds less frequent than in adults, it may have severe consequences. Therefore, it is important to know the initial clinical symptoms of stroke in children as well as the lack of aphasia opposed to the great frequency of epilepsy, and dystonia.
