Contrast-induced posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome following diagnostic angiography of vertebral artery
This case of contrast-induced PRES underscores the potential overlap in pathogenesis between PRES and contrast-induced encephalopathy. It emphasizes the need for careful blood pressure management and consideration of contrast medium type in patients undergoing angiography, especially those with a history of PRES. The successful management of this case provides valuable insights into the prevention and treatment of PRES in similar clinical scenarios.
