The ame of this study was exploring age as risk factor for stroke among 173 stroke cases which registered during 3 years (01.01.2007-31.12.2009) in Siyazan region of Azerbaijan. Mean age of stroke cases during investigated years was 65.2±0.9. Males had stroke at a younger age - 62.2±1.3 than females - 68.2±1.2 (p<0.001). Patients residing in rural areas had stroke at older age than urban population, which was at a statistically significant level. Most of the stroke patients fell into the age groups of 50-59 and 70-79. In first age group men, in second women. Mean age for ischaemic and hemorrhagic stroke cases was 65.8±0.9 and 57.6±3.4, respectively.
