Recurrent Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome: A Report of Two Cases.
Curēus 2023 August
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a rare neurological condition that classically presents with recurrent, thunderclap headaches and radiographic findings of multifocal narrowing of cerebral vasculature. Complications of RCVS may include ischemic or hemorrhagic strokes. Sympathomimetic agents including cannabinoids have been associated as precipitants in many cases. RCVS is classically considered to be reversible, although cases of recurrent RCVS have been described in the literature. In this report, we describe two cases of recurrent RCVS, which were precipitated by recurrent exposures to inciting agents. The first patient was found to have a history of repeated exposure to tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and suffered from recurrent multifocal ischemic strokes with evidence of persistent multifocal narrowing of cerebral vasculature by cerebral arteriography. The second case describes a patient with a history of use of ashwagandha, medical marijuana, and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) who experienced multiple intracranial hemorrhages with radiographic evidence of multifocal narrowing of cerebral vessels as well.
