Sammanfattning
Rare causes of ischaemic stroke comprise a plethora of diagnoses of cardioembolic, inflammatory and genetic origin. The differential
diagnosis is challenging but important because these disorders (e.g. monogenetic disorders such as COL4A1 mutations) often affect young
individuals, they typically require sophisticated diagnostics (e.g. fluorescence angiography in Susac‘s syndrome) and they are increasingly
treatable (e.g. enzyme replacement for Fabry‘s disease). This review discusses practical considerations and recent diagnostic and therapeutic
advances in uncommon causes of ischaemic stroke.
