INTRODUCTION: @entity75 ( @entity75 ) has been reported to occur in @entity1 with @entity3036 . In both conditions there is evidence to suggest disordered cerebral autoregulation. OBJECTIVES: We sought to investigate the concurrence of @entity75 with @entity3036 and to describe the associated obstetric, radiologic and critical care correlates. METHODS: Single center 2001-2010 retrospective cohort study of all @entity1 with @entity3036 who underwent neuroimaging via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computerized tomography (CT) with or without contrast. The medical records of all @entity1 with @entity3036 during the study interval were identified, evaluated and extracted for pertinent data; a diagnosis of @entity75 was made by radiologists using standard criteria. RESULTS: Forty-six of forty-seven (97.9%) @entity1 with @entity3036 revealed @entity75 on neuroimaging using one or more modalities: MRI without contrast=41 (87.2%), MRI with contrast=27 (57.4%), CT without contrast=16 (34%), CT with contrast=7 (14.8%) and/or MRA/ @entity5765 (4.3%). @entity75 was identified within the parietal (36, 78.3%), occipital (35, 76.1%), frontal (29, 63%), temporal (13, 28.3%) and basal ganglia/ brainstem/cerebellum (12, 26.1%). @entity3036 occurred antepartum in 23 @entity1 , postpartum in 24 @entity1 with 22 vaginal/25 cesarean deliveries at a mean maternal age of 21.8 years (range 15-39) and a mean gestational age of 33.9 weeks (range 22.4-41.7 weeks). Ethnicity was African-American in 38 @entity1 . @entity10 was the most common presenting symptom (87.2%) followed by @entity1032 (51.1%), @entity227 (34%) and @entity1209 (19.1%). Severe systolic @entity101 was present in 22 (47%) of @entity1 .Use of antihypertensives (87%), @entity2399 (100%), diuretics (66%) and @entity288 (50%) facilitated maternal recovery in all cases with usually a brief hospitalization (mean 3.9 days, range 1-20 days). CONCLUSION: The common finding of @entity75 in @entity1 with @entity3036 suggests that @entity75 may be part of the pathogenesis of @entity3036 . We speculate that therapy targeted at prevention or reversal of @entity75 pathogenesis will prevent or facilitate recovery from @entity3036 .
