Abstract:
Stroke is a rare but serious complication during pregnancy and puerperium. The main risk factors for pregnancy-related ischemic stroke are the same as those of the general female population, including hypertension, valvular heart disease, hypercoagulability, sickle cell anemia, systemic lupus erythematosus, chronic kidney disease, and migraine. This article reviews the pregnancy-specific risk factors for pregnancy-related ischemic stroke, including hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, cesarean section, acceptance of assisted reproductive technology, and peripartum cardiomyopathy.
