“…[12] Interestingly, both mechanisms may be set in motion by serotonin reuptake inhibitors. [13] Excess serotonin not only exerts proinflammatory effects, [14] but also directly induces contraction of the vascular smooth muscle cells and excessive capillary permeability. [15,16] These actions may impair blood–brain barrier function, thereby producing the vasogenic and extracellular edema that characterizes the hypertensive encephalopathy seen in PRES.…”

“…Les autres étiologies ont une présentation et un profil évolutif en géné-ral différents : leucoencéphalopathie multifocale progressive (LEMP), leucoaraïose sévère, angiopathie CADASIL (cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy), une encéphalite infectieuse, une encéphalomyélite aiguë disséminée (ADEM), un syndrome MELAS (mitochondrial myopathy encephalopathy lactacidosis and stroke-like episodes), une vascularite cérébrale, une maladie de Creutzfeld-Jakob, une thrombose veineuse cérébrale et un accident vasculaire cérébral isché-mique [37,44].…”

“…L'étiologie sous-jacente dominante est l'insuffisance rénale aiguë compliquant le plus souvent une forme chronique [3]. Des cas associant des étiologies multiples comme à une maladie auto-immune ou à des causes toxiques ont pu être rapportés [37].…”

“…Other proposed associations with PRES are frequently reported, and include tumor lysis syndrome [25], methylprednisolone [26], scleroderma [27], bilateral carotid artery 480 Neuro-ophthalmology dissection [28], dexamethasone [29], hypercalcemia [30], nitroglycerin [31], LSD [32 ], traditional Chinese medicines [33] and implantation of a left ventricular assist device [34]. Causation is ultimately related to pathophysiology, and some of these associations may be coincidental.…”
