Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases are one of the common causes of high morbidity and mortality all over the world. Usually stroke occur in elderly, but stroke in younger group (age <45 years) are increasingly common now-a-days. The disease can occur in young patients without any apparent risk factors. It is therefore important to exclude all aetiological causes in order to reduce their chances for a subsequent event.
