Keywords: Stroke, BrainPediatric stroke remains a significant cause of lifelong neurological impairment and morbity. Treatment options and our understanding of stroke evolution in the developing brain, especially beyond the peri- and neonatal period, is still limited. By using a photothrombotic juvenile rat stroke model and quantitative MRI, we were able to assess stroke and blood-brain barrier damage following the use of atorvastatin from the hyper acute to chronic stages following acute ischemic stroke. Findings support a reduction in lesion volume within the statin group with no significant changes to BBB damage.
