Imaging findings in 45 patients with eclampticposterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome were assessed. The most common affected areas were the occipital, parietal, frontal, and temporal lobes. Serum creatinine, uric acid, and lactate dehydrogenase values and presence of moderate or severe PRES were significantly associated with mortality. Eclamptic PRES demonstrated a higher incidence of atypical distributions and cytotoxic edema than previously thought.
