Although recurrence risk is a major concern for women having had an ischemic stroke (IS) and who are planning a pregnancy, studies on recurrence risk and pregnancy outcomes are scarce and heterogeneous. This retrospective study assessed women aged 15-44 years with a diagnosis of ischemic stroke admitted in the Lyon Stroke Centre, France, between January 2009 and December 2013. The primary outcome was stroke recurrence during pregnancy or the post-partum period. Secondary outcomes were pregnancy complications. Overall, 104 women with a prior ischemic stroke were included. Mean age at the time of the stroke was 36 ± 6.7 years old. Stroke etiology was large-artery atherosclerosis for 1 woman, cardioembolism for 23 women, and undetermined for 55 women. No antiphospholipid syndrome was found. Among them, 29 women had 58 subsequent pregnancies. Overall, there were three IS recurrence (2.9%), but none occurred during pregnancy. There were 27 miscarriages (47% of pregnancies), two pre-eclampsia (3%), and one stillbirth (1.7%). We observed no recurrence of IS during pregnancy. The study also highlighted that the risk of miscarriages was higher than general population and that of stillbirth should be further studied.
