Article Synopsis
- Posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare neurological condition linked to medications like cyclosporine A, which might complicate the diagnosis when patients also have COVID-19.
- A 16-year-old patient with nephrotic syndrome developed seizures and fever after starting cyclosporine, prompting concern for COVID-19 related brain inflammation, leading to temporary discontinuation of the drug.
- After recovering from COVID-19, the patient faced seizures again upon restarting cyclosporine, allowing doctors to correctly diagnose the issue as PRES associated with the medication rather than a COVID-19 complication.
