Result – The cereovascular strokes are more common in male 67.9% than female 32.1%. Most common age group was 51–60 yrs and most common etiology was ischemic 68.5%. Most common risk factor was hypertension 57.1%, smoking 29.3% and dyslipidemia 27.1%. Most common presentation was hemiplegic 58.6% Conclusion – The trend of cereovascular stroke rises with age, male are affecting more than female, Hypertension is the most common risk factor and most common type of stroke is ischemic.
