| Discussion | Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome -Reversible, multifocal cerebral artery vasoconstriction -Severe headaches +/- focal neurological deficits Pathology -Thought to represent transient disturbance in control of cerebral vascular tone ⊇ vasoconstriction ⊇ ischemia, stroke, death -Spontaneous (1/3 cases) -Precipitaed by post-partum state or exposure to vasoactive substance Imaging -Acute/recurrent headaches + vasculitic pattern (DSA) -DSA = curcial for diagnosis ( 100% sensitive) -Involves larges, medium-sized arteries -Diffuse, multifocal, segmental narrowing -Sometimes ¨string of beads 〃 or ¨sausage strings 〃 -NECT often negative -Small cortical SAHs (20%) +/- parenchymal hemorrhage -CTA/MRA: May be normal if subtle changes (10%) -Diffuse segmental arterial constriction in 90 % |
