A case of malignant hypertension with multi-organ injury

A 33-year-old woman visited our hospital due to visual loss. Her BP was 280/150 mm Hg and pulse rate was 111 beats per minute. A urinalysis showed protein in urine, suggesting kidney injury. A transthoracic echocardiography showed left ventricular hypertrophy. A Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging su...

description A 33-year-old woman visited our hospital due to visual loss. Her BP was 280/150 mm Hg and pulse rate was 111 beats per minute. A urinalysis showed protein in urine, suggesting kidney injury. A transthoracic echocardiography showed left ventricular hypertrophy. A Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging suggested left ventricular endocardial edema or inflammation. Ophthalmoscopy showed optic disc edema and hard exudates in both eyes. A brain MRI showed multiple high-intensity areas at the pons and white matter of the cerebrum and cerebellum. Although the patient had malignant hypertension, she was successfully treated by medication.
