| Popis: | To demonstrate and compare the clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and neuroimaging findings of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) in children with and without underlying renal disease.The study included 23 children with a diagnosis of PRES from January 2009 to March 2019. All data, including clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, underlying medical illness, and neuroimaging results, were obtained.Sixteen had underlying renal disease. The median age of PRES onset was 10.3 years in children with renal disease and 9.8 years in children without renal disease. Higher blood pressure at the baseline, on admission, and at the onset of PRES was found in the renal disease group more than in the nonrenal disease group (P 0.05). Seizures were likely seen in the renal disease group compared with the nonrenal disease group (P = 0.03). Generalized tonic-clonic seizures were the most common seizure type in both groups. An initial CT scan revealed vasogenic edema in 75% of the renal group and 85.7% of the nonrenal group. During a long-term follow-up, all children recovered without significant neurological deficits or subsequent epilepsy.Hypertension and higher baseline blood pressure are more common in children with renal disease who develop PRES compared with nonrenal disease. Seizures are more common in the renal disease group. A computed tomographic (CT) scan can help with PRES diagnosis when magnetic resonance imaging is not available. All children with PRES recovered without significant neurological deficits or subsequent epilepsy. |
