A 21-year-old man had a long-standing history of leg ulcers and hyperpigmention over the feet. Over a span of 8 months, he had an acute ischemic stroke followed by a basal ganglia hemorrhage. He was finally diagnosed with DADA2 syndrome after genetic sequencing. The implications of this new syndrome and its links to stroke in the young are presented in this article.
