Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a rare but significant cause of intracranial arteriopathy and stroke in young adults. The syndrome encompasses a spectrum of disorders radiologically characterized by reversible narrowing and dilation of intracranial arteries, often triggered by vasoactive drugs or the postpartum period. The hallmark clinical feature of RCVS is thunderclap headache with or without other neurological signs.

Background: Pregnancy-associated spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) are rare conditions that may occur during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The coexistence of both diseases may pose a risk to patients, potentially resulting in a variety of complications and clinical manifestations. This is considered the first case of a patient who successfully recovered from a critical condition in the postpartum period, with contemporaneous SCAD and RCVS.

Objective: With the development of diagnostic imaging, a new clinical entity called reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS), which is considered to be a cause of secondary headache, has emerged. We herein present two cases of RCVS with different patterns of clinical progression.
Case Report: Case 1 occurred during labor, whereas case 2 occurred after delivery.

Introduction: Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a potentially life-threatening neurological disorder, rarely linked to intracranial hypotension. The presentation showed a patient with intracranial hypotension after peridural anesthesia who experienced RCVS during the early postpartum period, suggesting a potential involvement of intracranial hypotension in RCVS occurrence.
Case Report: A young female of 29 years of age initially developed an orthostatic headache after undergoing a painless delivery with lumbar epidural anesthesia.

Background: Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is characterized by sudden onset thunderclap headache and multiple segmental reversible cerebral vasoconstrictions that improve within 3 months. The postpartum period is a well-known precipitating factor for the onset of RCVS. Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) causes thunderclap headaches in the postpartum period.
