【 摘 要 】

The report illustrates a case with innumerable disseminated cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) in a patient with hypertension and sepsis. Both sepsis and uncontrolled hypertension, if severe enough, might lead to PRES and CMBs via multiple mechanisms including endothelial dysfunction, vasoconstriction and coagulopathy. This case highlights their effect might be additive in milder cases.
