    Author: Hirshfeld-Cytron J, Lam C, Karumanchi SA, Lindheimer M.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol Surv; 2006 Jul; 61(7):471-80. PubMed ID: 16787550.
    Abstract:
    Eclampsia, defined as the occurrence of seizures in pregnant women, usually in the setting of preeclampsia and in the absence of other neurologic disorders, occurs mainly before, during , or within 48 hours after delivery. When convulsions occur later postpartum, diagnosis is difficult and treatment disputed. We review the entity of late postpartum eclampsia and report 2 examples in which the serum levels of antiangiogenic and angiogenic proteins were measured.
