Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome after Solid Organ Transplantation

Abstract

Patients who had undergone SOTs have a similar low incidence of developing PRES. Differences between those who have had liver and kidney transplants included time after transplant, toxicity MAP, and PRES vasogenic edema noted at presentation. In patients who have undergone kidney transplants, severely elevated MAP was associated with reduced, not greater, brain edema.
