Özet:

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is a rare clinical and radiological entity which can lead to seizures. Some of its risk factors are hypertension and vasculitis, as in the case of Takayasu Arteritis, a large vessel arteritis which damages the abdominal vasculature. We report the case of a patient who presented in a generalized convulsive status epilepticus secondary to a PRES, which was induced by a renovascular hypertension secondary to Takayasu Arteritis. The aim of this study is to report the case of a rare association of Takayasu Arteritis and PRES, and discuss the timeline of the assessment of our patients condition, which allowed us to start the treatment as quickly as possible.
