She was treated with oral iron due to postpartum anaemia but had no other relevant medical history. This patient arrived at the ER presenting with a one-month history of headaches, apathy, and bradypsychia. The headaches had worsened in the last 48 hours with incomplete response to conventional analgesic treatment. Nausea and vomiting had appeared in the last few hours. She had no fever. While in the ER she had a sudden deterioration in level of consciousness together with a tonic–clonic seizure. She was intubated. An emergent CT scan showed signs of diffuse cerebral oedema and obliterated subarachnoid cisterns. Leptomeningeal and ependymal enhancement was present (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>A and B).

A decompressive wide bifrontal craniectomy with bilateral decompression of the frontal and temporal lobes was carried out as a compassionate treatment, and a biopsy of the right frontal lobe was performed. During the intervention, we observed the brain to be congested and of a hard consistency. After the procedure an intracranial pressure sensor was placed which initially recorded pressures below 15<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mmHg. After intervention mydriasis was reversed and pupillary reflexes were restored. CSF analysis showed no cytochemical abnormalities and the results from the CSF culture were negative for bacteria, viruses, and fungi. The results of blood serology tests for autoimmune diseases were also negative. A brain MRI showed supra and infratentorial diffuse involvement, especially in the frontal lobes and corpus callosum.
