Key Words Atypical eclampsia; Eclampsia; Hypertension-induced pregnancy; Case Report
Core Tip Generalized seizures are the hallmark of eclampsia, along with high blood pressure and proteinuria. However, in some women, eclampsia could develop in the absence of proteinuria and hypertension. A seizure in pregnancy without hypertension and/or proteinuria is considered atypical eclampsia. Here, we report an atypical presentation of eclampsia, the generalised seizure without prior hypertension and proteinuria, experienced by a young primigravida in a primary healthcare centre located in a remote area. We found neurological disturbances and gastrointestinal symptoms were present as impending eclampsia symptoms. Magnesium sulphate is administered as the first line of eclampsia treatment.
