Intracerebral hemorrhage is an infrequent but severe complication in pregnant women with hypertension.
We describe an atypical case of a patient with no risk factors who developed sudden eclampsia and spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage during the 34(th) week of pregnancy. She underwent successful emergent Cesarean section followed by craniotomy. Both intraoperative surveillance and postoperative magnetic resonance angiographic examination of the cerebral vessels failed to identify an aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation, tumor, or leptomeningeal disease.
We discuss the management of this case and review the literature regarding the threshold for which initiation of antihypertensive treatment is indicated in pregnant patients.
脑出血是高血压孕妇中一种罕见但严重的并发症。
我们描述了一例非典型病例,该患者无危险因素,在妊娠第34周时突然发生子痫和自发性脑出血。她成功接受了急诊剖宫产,随后进行了开颅手术。术中对脑血管的监测以及术后的磁共振血管造影检查均未发现动脉瘤、动静脉畸形、肿瘤或软脑膜疾病。
我们讨论了该病例的处理方法,并回顾了关于妊娠患者开始降压治疗阈值的文献。
