Both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes in children can be a complication of sickle cell disease, which also affects adults. The occurrence is high without any screening or preventative care. This review article found that although transcranial Doppler (TCD) has reduced the prevalence of stroke in pediatric patients, there is still a need for an epidemiological survey to define such screening for adults, the ideal dose of hydroxyurea to reduce the incidence of stroke, and to identify silent cerebral stroke to prevent its complications. Increased hydroxyurea prescription and specific antibiotic and vaccination regimes lowered the occurrence of this condition. In pediatric cases with a time-averaged mean of the maximal velocity greater than 200cm/s, transcranial Doppler screening and preventive chronic transfusion for at least the first year have lowered the occurrence of stroke by up to 10 times. The ideal dose of hydroxyurea is still debatable, but it seems to reduce the risk of the fi
