Postpartum Seizures - Clinical Acumen Matters - A Case Report

Dr. Deepthy Balakrishnan, Dr. Nivetha Sampath

Abstract: Postpartum seizures can occur due to various causes. When seizures occur in the postpartum period, they should be treated as postpartum eclampsia unless proven otherwise but should rule out other conditions that can be life - threatening. We present a case of intraperitoneal bleeding, which was misdiagnosed and managed as eclampsia, which highlights the need to discuss the differential diagnosis of seizures in the postpartum period.
