Eclampsia is a syndrome of hypertension, proteinuria, edema, and neurologic manifestations such as seizures, focal deficits, or blindness occurring during pregnancy, mainly in primigravidas. Although it is not seen often in the pediatric population, it occurs with greater frequency among pregnant patients under the age of 15 than in the general population. Serious sequelae can be prevented with prompt and adequate treatment, including termination of pregnancy. (J Child Neurol 1989;4:55-60).
