A\u00a0comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus to identify case reports and series involving pediatric patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with intracranial stenting. Six cases met inclusion criteria.

The supraclinoid internal carotid artery was the most common site of stent deployment (4\/6), while intracranial dissection was the most frequent cause of vessel occlusion (3\/6). All included patients achieved resolution of the initial neurological deficit on follow-up (range: 6\u00a0weeks to 6\u00a0months). Variation in the use of intraoperative and postoperative antiplatelet regimens was observed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case demonstrates off-label rescue stenting in pediatric acute ischemic stroke due to focal cerebral arteriopathy, emphasizing the importance of individualized multidisciplinary management in this rare setting.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00062-025-01563-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,9]],"date-time":"2025-09-09T04:46:30Z","timestamp":1757393190000},"page":"265-271","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Intracranial Rescue Stenting in Pediatric Focal Cerebral Arteriopathy"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-6624-2040","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Saujanya","family":"Rajbhandari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philipe","family":"Breiding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Iciar","family":"Sanchez-Albisua","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Daniel","family":"Brechb\u00fchl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandrine","family":"Cornaz Buros","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gabriela","family":"Oesch Nemeth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Johannes","family":"Kaesmacher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lorenz","family":"Grunder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Petra","family":"Cimflova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eike","family":"Piechowiak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Seiffge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maja","family":"Steinlin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jan","family":"Gralla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrea","family":"Klein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tomas","family":"Dobrocky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"1563_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"825","DOI":"10.1016\/S2352-4642(21)00167-X","volume":"5","author":"PB Sporns","year":"2021","unstructured":"Sporns\u00a0PB, Fullerton\u00a0HJ, Lee\u00a0S, et\u00a0al.
