Abstract

The pathophysiological mechanisms of Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) and related seizures remain poorly understood. The prevalence and clinical significance of nonconvulsive seizures (NCSz) and related epileptiform patterns during continuous electroencephalography monitoring (CEEG) in PRES have not been well described.
