20244 citationsOpen accessStellenbosch University

Abstract

Eclampsia was associated with cerebral infarcts, vasogenic cerebral edema, vasospasm, and decreased perfusion, which are not usually evident on standard clinical imaging. This finding may explain why some patients have cerebral symptoms and signs despite having normal conventional imaging.
