Homonymous hemianopia following a triplet pregnancy: post-natal cerebral vasculitis or atypical eclampsia. European journal of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology, 2002, Jun-10, Volume: 103, Issue:1 A 46-year-old woman with a triplet pregnancy developed seizures, an oculogyric crisis and a homonymous hemianopia post-natally. Abnormal neuroimaging studies and lumbar puncture suggested possible cerebral vasculitis. Treatment with aciclovir and prednisolone resulted in a slow resolution of symptoms. This case highlights the difficulty in distinguishing eclampsia from rarer neurological causes of peripartum seizures.

Homonymous hemianopia following a triplet pregnancy: post-natal cerebral vasculitis or atypical eclampsia.

European journal of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology, 2002, Jun-10, Volume: 103, Issue:1

A 46-year-old woman with a triplet pregnancy developed seizures, an oculogyric crisis and a homonymous hemianopia post-natally. Abnormal neuroimaging studies and lumbar puncture suggested possible cerebral vasculitis. Treatment with aciclovir and prednisolone resulted in a slow resolution of symptoms. This case highlights the difficulty in distinguishing eclampsia from rarer neurological causes of peripartum seizures.
