Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare complication of eclampsia. Early diagnosis and blood pressure control can lead to complete recovery from neurological deficits and MRI abnormalities.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Obstetrics

Background:

  • Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare neurological complication of eclampsia.
  • It is characterized by seizures, visual disturbances, and focal neurological deficits.

Observation:

  • Two cases of eclampsia presented with typical PRES symptoms.
  • Cranial MRI revealed high-intensity areas in the parieto-occipital white matter.

Findings:

  • Successful control of blood pressure led to complete resolution of neurological deficits.
  • Radiological abnormalities on MRI also resolved completely with treatment.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of early recognition and prompt treatment of PRES.
