Abstract:
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome is a condition characterized by transient constriction of cerebral arteries, which can lead to headaches and neurological abnormalities. In a case involving a patient who experienced headaches following a head injury, we present a case where the distinctive feature of thunderclap headache, typical of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome, was not observed, leading to a misdiagnosis of post-concussion syndrome.
