Article Abstract
MR imaging findings have been reported in only a few cases of severe arterial hypertension. We report two cases of severe paroxysmal arterial hypertension associated with unusual brain stem hyperintensity. The lesions improved dramaticall y after stabilization of blood pressure, suggesting that edema could be the main cause of the MR imaging-observed hyperintensity.
