Case of postpartum eclampsia in a patient with isolated proteinuria

Introduction: Eclampsia is traditionally defined as the occurrence of seizures in pregnant women, usually in the setting of preeclampsia and in the absence of other neurologic disorders. It is mostly a peripartum pathology occurring mainly before, during, or within 48 hours after delivery. When convulsions occur in the postpartum phase, the diagnosis becomes more challenging and worthy of comprehensive investigations.
