Abstract

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a neurological disorder characterized by signs of posterior cerebral edema upon radiographic examination.

Signal changes was noted on both parietal lobes in the magnetic resonance images and it was completely resolved in 3 months follow-up.
