Rare association of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) with hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets (HELLP) syndrome – A case report and review of the literature
PRES associated with HELLP syndrome is a rare combination of third trimester/postpartum complications which usually present with seizures, altered sensorium, headache, hypertension, and laboratory disorders. These disorders require mutual neurological, internal and gynaecological treatment, and if timely treated resolve completely in most of the cases. However, caution is required as these patients may develop serious somatic complications and permanent neurological deficits or even fatal outcomes.
