Aetiology
Causes include:
- stroke; haemorrhagic or occlusive
- trauma
- infection
- migraine
- seizure, or post ictal
The aetiology is similar in children and adults, however there is a markedly different emphasis between the two groups; in the elderly stroke is likely to be the most common cause, but in children the aetiology of the stroke itself will be much broader.
