Abstract EN
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is a well-known complication of treatment by tacrolimus.
We report 2 cases of lung transplant recipients treated with tacrolimus who developed cerebral microbleeds on T2*-weighted sequences in the acute setting of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome.
Cerebral microbleeds may be a marker of tacrolimus-induced vasculopathy that may be detected earlier by neuropsychological and magnetic resonance imaging monitoring in transplant recipients treated with tacrolimus.
