Reversible cerebral vasoconstrictive syndrome preceded by minor head trauma

Abstract

Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome is a heterogeneous and under-recognised neurovascular disorder. Our knowledge with regards to specific syndrome triggers and optimal management is limited. The delay in diagnosis can be deleterious to the patient due to intracerebral sequelae causing temporary or permanent morbidity. Prompt identification of this syndrome is vital to reverse neurological deficits while appropriately managing and supporting patient recovery.
