Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is characterized by reversible segmental vasoconstriction of the cerebral arteries that spontaneously resolve within 3 months. Occurrence of RCVS peaks at around 40 years and the syndrome is common in women. Here, we report an adolescent boy case of RCVS.
