Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome secondary to acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis

Abstract

A previously healthy 11-year-old boy presented to the emergency department with generalized tonic-clonic seizures. One week prior, he had complained of headaches, blurry vision, nausea, and vomiting. Once the seizures were controlled with midazolam and levetiracetam, the patient was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit.
