Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a clinical and radiological syndrome, in which a patient presents with neurological symptoms, including headache, seizures, altered sensorium, and loss of vision, and accompanied with characteristic magnetic resonance imaging findings which are likely to be reversible. Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute demyelinating polyneuropathy presumably related to immunological mechanisms. Here, we describe a patient who had PRES in recovery phase of GBS while he was neither on any immunomodulator nor was having hypertension. He recovered completely clinically as well as radiologically.
后部可逆性脑病综合征(PRES)是一种临床和影像学综合征,患者表现出神经症状,包括头痛、癫痫发作、意识改变和视力丧失,并伴有可能可逆的特征性磁共振成像表现。吉兰-巴雷综合征(GBS)是一种可能与免疫机制相关的急性脱髓鞘性多发性神经病。在此,我们描述一名在GBS恢复期出现PRES的患者,当时他既未使用任何免疫调节剂,也没有高血压。他在临床和影像学上均完全康复。
