متن کاملReversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome with reversible renal artery stenosis.
A 41-year-old woman presented with thunderclap headaches, cortical blindness, generalized seizures, and severe hypertension. Brain imaging (figure) showed features of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome.

متن کاملAcute Headache at Emergency Department: Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome Complicated by Subarachnoid Haemorrhage and Cerebral Infarction
Introduction. Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome is becoming widely accepted as a rare cause of both ischemic and haemorrhagic stroke and should be evocated in case of thunderclap headaches associated with stroke. We present the case of a patient with ischemic stroke associated with cortical subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH) and reversible diffuse arteries narrowing, leading to the dia...
