Abstract
Mineralising angiopathy is a condition characterized by parenchymal cerebral calcifications, and is usually seen in children as a complication of cranial radiotherapy and chemotherapy [1-2]. Basal ganglia stroke is known following trivial head trauma. Recently a distinct clinic-radiological entity termed ‘mineralizing angiopathy’ was described. His clinic-radiological features are described. We report an infant who developed left sided hemiparesis following trivial fall. It is a rare entity.
