Patient 21 is a 59-year-old woman who developed altered mental status, loss of consciousness, and severe hypertension (220/100 mm Hg) 17 months after cadaveric renal transplant for hypertension-related chronic renal failure. She was being managed for mild organ rejection just before toxicity. MR imaging (FLAIR sequence) obtained at toxicity demonstrates primarily cortical vasogenic edema in the occipital poles bilaterally (open arrows) judged Edema grade 1. Follow-up MR imaging 3 days later demonstrated resolution of the vasogenic edema.
