Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome in cystinosis

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2013
Cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder (CTNS gene n chromosome 17p13) based on a defective transport of cysine out of lysosomes leading to systemic accumulation of cystine. ith an incidence of about 1 in 100,000 live births there are urrently about 300–400 cases in the USA [1].

Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome: A Review

Canadian Association of Radiologists Journal, 2017
Radiologists may be the first to suggest the diagnosis of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). PRES is associated with many diverse clinical entities, the most common of which are eclampsia, hypertension, and immunosuppressive treatment. Radiologists should be aware of the spectrum of imaging findings in PRES.

The Spectrum of Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome

Neurologic Clinics
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome consists of acute to subacute symptoms which include seizures, encephalopathy, headaches, visual hallucinations or visual loss, and focal neurologic deficits in the setting of vasogenic brain edema. Both the clinical and radiographic findings are reversible in most, leading to a favorable neurologic ...

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome: A variant of hypertensive encephalopathy

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2006
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a recently described variant of hypertensive encephalopathy characterized by headache, visual disturbances and altered mental function. Its causes are diverse and in contrast to hypertensive encephalopathy, it can develop without significant elevation of blood pressure.
