Reversible encephalopathy syndrome: report of 12 cases with follow-up.

S Greco Crasto1, L Rizzo, P Sardo, O Davini, R De Lucchi.   

Abstract

We report the clinical and neuroradiological features of reversible encephalopathy syndrome and follow-up results in 12 patients. This syndrome seems to be the result of an acute encephalopathy showing with brain edema mainly in the white matter (vasogenic edema). Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images are useful to distinguish this entity from acute ischemia. Early recognition and treatment often lead to complete neurological recovery. If unrecognized, the patient's condition can progress to central nervous system failure.
