Introduction: The aim of this study is to evaluate the brain imaging results and related characteristics of patients who apply to the child emergency service for the first time with unhealthy stroke. Methods: This study was conducted between 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2019 with patients diagnosed with fireless stroke who apply to the Dr. Sami National Children's Hospital Emergency Service at the University of Health Sciences, Ankara. Children who have not previously had neurological disease or persistent disease, with no history of drug use, were included in the study. Patients’ medical records were reviewed backward. Results: 55% of our working group were men (n=22), 45% women (n=18) and the average age was 4.50 (minimum=0.25-maximum=17,00) years. The average time of the attack was 5,0 (minimum = 0,03-maximum = 30,0) minutes. Physical examinations in the emergency service did not show any notable findings in 80% of patients (n=32). In 10% of patients, computer tomography (n=4) and in 12.5% magnetic resonance imaging (n=5) identified a specific pathology. There was no significant difference in gender, age and period of infection between patients with and without pathology (p>0,05). The result: 85% of patients seeking emergency care for the first time due to an inflamed stroke had normal brain imaging findings. Variants such as gender, age, and period of infection were not associated with the presence or absence of pathology in neurogenesis.
