Abstract
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a syndrome characterized by various neurological findings such as headache, visual disturbances, seizures and altered consciousness, and imaging findings of edema in the posterior cerebral regions. Clinical and radiological findings are often reversible. Etiology may include hypertension, cytotoxic drugs, and autoimmune diseases. It often develops on the background of eclampsia and high blood pressure in the postpartum period. In this article, two cases of PRES, which developed under normal blood pressure values during pregnancy and postpartum period and characterized by seizure, are presented
