Abstract

Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction syndrome is an uncommon and often under-diagnosed neurologic disorder. It is characterized by thunderclap headache withor without focal neurologic deficits and seizures. Common provoking factors include postpartum status and vasoactive drugs. We report a case of reversible CerebralVasoconstriction syndrome with posterior leukoencephalopathy following packed red blood cell transfusion, which is a rare complication of this commonly usedmodality of treatment for severe anaemia.

Özet

Reversibl Serebral Vazokonstrüksiyon sendromu, nadir görülen ve sıklıkla teşhis edilemeyen nörolojik bir bozukluktur. Fokal nörolojik defisitler ve nöbetlerin eşlik edebildiği “gök gürültüsü” baş ağrısı ile karakterizedir. Sık görülen provoke edici faktörler arasında doğum sonrası dönem ve vazoaktif ilaçlar bulunur. Bu olgu bildiriminde, şiddetli anemi için yaygın olarak kullanılan bir tedavi yöntemi olan eritrosit süspansiyonu transfüzyonunun nadir bir komplikasyonu olarak, transfüzyonu takiben reversibl serebral vazokonstrüksiyon ile birlikte Posterior Lökoensefalopati sendromu gelişen bir hasta sunulmaktadır.
