Isolated angiitis of the central nervous system first presenting as intracranial hemorrhage during cesarean section.
A case of isolated angiitis of the central nervous system (CNS) which first presented as intracranial hemorrhage during cesarean section is reported. Only one case of isolated angiitis of the CNS in post partum has been reported to date. Although a headache in labor and puerperium usually suggests subarachnoid hemorrhage, isolated angiitis of the CNS should be considered in the differential diagnosis.
