Maternal and Perinatal Outcome of Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) in Patients with Eclampsia at Tertiary Health Care Centre.

Authors

Abstract

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) and the related term reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) denote a constellation of clinical symptoms paired with key radiological findings. Eclampsia associated with PRES is a rare condition and remains a challenging diagnosis to make. There are only a few studies regarding PRES syndrome with a limited sample size. Our institution is a tertiary referral centre; hence, a good sample size of patients with eclampsia complicated with PRES syndrome is seen in our study. The objective was to identify the maternal and neonatal outcomes in PRES with eclampsia.
