Arvind Vyas [2] | Jaydeep Kumar Sharma [2]
Abstract: Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome is an infrequent presentation of early onset eclampsia causing ICH during mid-pregnancy. RCVS occurs due to sudden constriction of vessels supplying the brain. RCVS usually presents with symptoms of sudden severe headache (Thunderclap headache) & seizure. ICH is an uncommon manifestation of RCVS in mid trimester of pregnancy. We reported a case of 19 years old female who presented with RCVS which complicated as ICH in mid trimester of pregnancy. The clinician should be aware about this uncommon presentation of RCVS for early diagnosis & treatment.
