[Hereditary metabolic causes of stroke and pseudo-stroke in adulthood]
Abstract
Metabolic diseases are a rare cause of strokes. However, prevention and treatment are available for some of them. This work describes some metabolic diseases generating strokes by disturbing directly vascular function (homocysteine disorders, Fabry disease, congenital defects of glycosylation) and those for which clinical presentation is similar to a stroke (urea cycle disorders, branched-chain organic acidurias, mitochondrial diseases).
