Postpartum stroke is rare, and because complaints are similar to preeclampsia, diagnostic confusion may delay the diagnostic workup that should include prompt computerized tomography of the brain. We describe a patient with postpartum stroke who died because of extensive ischemic damage throughout the brain with 3 simultaneous arterial occlusions. We stress the importance of raising this diagnosis in your workup because adequate measurements like angiography and intra-arterial thrombolysis could significantly improve the patient's outcome.
