Extensive narrowing of lumens of many cerebral arteries caused strokes with brain damage
and chronic hemipareses in two children with Williams syndrome. Increased irritability, loss
of consciousness, and seizures were initial signs. Arterial stenoses are not limited to the
supravaivular aorta and pulmonary arteries in patients with Williams syndrome.(J PEDIATR
