Erratum to: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES): a rare condition after resection of posterior fossa tumors: two new cases and review of the literature.

Abstract

Introduction In 1996, Hinchey and colleagues coined the term “Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome” (PRES) to describe a condition seen in patients with acute neurological symptoms and reversible subcortical vasogenic edema predominantly involving parieto-occipital areas demonstrated in brain MRI. The occurrence of this phenomenon after surgical resection of CNS tumors is typically linked to pediatric cases.
