Newly Diagnosed Lupus Nephritis in a Male Patient Presenting with PRES

Abstract

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is characterised with neurological symptoms and typical radiological appearances. Hypertension is the most common cause of PRES. Systemic lupus erythematosus is a rare cause of PRES. Here, we present a 55-year-old case who presented with headache and convulsion and was diagnosed with concomitant lupus nephritis and PRES.
