Ischemic Stroke in Young Patients is a growing clinical concern, marked by the sudden loss of blood supply to the brain in individuals typically under 50 years of age. Unlike older adults, young stroke patients often present with atypical risk factors such as genetic predispositions, autoimmune disorders, cardiac abnormalities, or lifestyle-related factors like smoking and drug use. Early diagnosis and targeted investigations—such as imaging, coagulation studies, and cardiac evaluations—are essential for identifying the underlying cause. Management includes acute reperfusion therapy, secondary prevention, and long-term rehabilitation to address functional and psychosocial impacts. A multidisciplinary approach is key to improving outcomes and minimizing long-term disability in this age group.
