Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome.
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is an under-recognised condition. It is characterised by sudden and severe headaches (of "thunderclap" type) associated with multifocal reversible narrowing of the intracranial arteries on neuroradiology. The diagnosis is often established with the resolution of headaches and vasoconstriction. We report two patients with RCVS and review the a...

BACKGROUND Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome is characterized by thunderclap headache associated with multifocal vasoconstriction of cerebral arteries in patients without aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The vasoconstriction reverts within three months. We report a 44-year-old man who had a thunderclap headache during sexual intercourse. A similar episode occurred at rest 3...
متن کاملHemorrhagic Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome
The reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is well characterized as a group of conditions typically heralded by severe thunderclap headaches (TCH) associated with reversible segmental multifocal cerebral artery vasoconstriction. Approximately one third to half develop intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH), ischemic stroke, and reversible brain ede...
متن کاملClinical worsening in reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome.
IMPORTANCE Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is characterized by recurrent thunderclap headaches and evidence of vasoconstriction with subsequent resolution. The clinical course of RCVS is traditionally considered monophasic and benign. However, recurrent episodes of focal neurological symptoms have been described after initial presentation. OBJECTIVE To define the frequenc...
