Fabry disease 80-87% ischemic strokes 8-12% mortality within 30 days 14% of all ischemic strokes in young adults and adolescents Non-Atherosclerotic Cerebral Vasculopathies Cervicocephalic arterial Traumatic cerebrovascular Radiation-induced dissections Fibromuscular dysplasia Moyamoya disease Sickle cell vasculopathy Vasculitis Post-varicella angiopathy Focal cerebral arteriopathy in children Migrainous infarction Ergotism disease arteriopathy Tumoral encasement of cervicocephalic vessels Hypoplasia and agenesis of cervicocephalic vessel Congenital arterial fenestration Coils, kinks and loops Biller J.
