AbstractWe present a case of a patient presenting with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome to the emergency department. We discuss the various symptoms that lead to the identification of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome and the important clinical clues. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is a very uncommon diagnosis/clinical presentation that requires the understanding of the condition and awareness in distinct/specific patient populations. Without this understanding, the diagnosis may be missed and appropriate management delayed.
