Magnesium Toxicity Presented as Quadriparesis in Postpartum Period: Case Report
Quadriparesis may result from numerous neurologic diseases. Any of the causes could occur in the postpartum period. However, some conditions have increased prevalence during peripartal period, such as cerebral venous thrombosis, eclampsia itself, or its treatment with magnesium sulfate causing neuromuscular dysfunction in case of toxicity. Herein, we report a case of magnesium toxicity in a 34- year-old mother in the early postpartum period. This case signifies the importance of magnesium toxicity in patients with decreased renal clearance.
