The incidence of reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome is extremely high. The clinical features include headache, mental disturbance, seizures, blurred vision, and other neurological symptoms. The lesion area is mainly limited to the parietal and occipital lobes; however, the frontal lobe, basal ganglia, temporal lobe, corpus callosum, and cerebellum can also be involved. The prognosis is good with timely and appropriate treatments.
