Abstract
Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) is typically characterized by headache, altered mental functioning, seizures, and visual loss associated with imaging findings of bilateral subcortical and cortical eodema with a predominantly posterior distribution. A 24-year-old woman had delivered first baby at 40 weeks' gestation. Her clinical course was stable until 2 days after delivery, when she developed attack of generalized tonic-clonic seizure, followed by decreased visual acuity and altered mental function. At 2 day after symptom onset, an MRI demostrated extensive, diffuse T2 hyperintense signal abnormalities involving subcortical white matter and adjacent and deep gray matter with a posterior predominance. We want to report this case that these clinical and radiologie findings were consistent with reversible posteriorleukoencephalopathy syndrome, which has not been widely recognized.
Özet
Reversbl posteriyor lökoensefalopati sendromu (RPLS) başağrısı, mental fonksiyon değişiklikleri, nöbetler, görme kaybı ile görüntüleme tetkiklerinde hemisferlerin özellikle posteriyor bölgelerine lokalize bilateral subkortikal ve kortikal ödemin varlığı ile karekterizedir. 24 yaşında kadın olgu, doğumun 2. gününde jeneralize tonik klonik nöbet, iki gün sonra ise mental fonksiyonlarda bozulma ve görmede azalma gelişmiştir. Semptomların başlangıcından 2 gün sonra çekilen kraniyal MRG'sinde hemisferlerin posteriyor bölgelerinde belirgin bilateral subkortikal beyaz cevher ve komşu gri cevheri de kapsayan T2'de hiperintens sinyal varlığı görüldü. Yeni tanımlanan RPLS ile uyumlu bu olguyu sendromun tipik radyolojik ve klinik bulguları nedeni ile sunmak istedik.
