Abstract

Several cases of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) after blood transfusion have been reported, but the long-term prognosis is unknown. Here, we report two cases of blood transfusion-associated PRES with severe brain atrophy at 1 year after onset. We report the case with a discussion of pathological mechanisms.<br />Competing Interests: The authors state that they have no conflicts of interest to declare.<br /> (© 2022 The Authors.
