摘要
Wernicke's encephalopathy is a potentially fatal complication of hyperemesis gravidarum. It develops due to deficiency of vitamin B1 and presents with neurological signs dominantly. It is most frequently seen in alcoholics. In pregnancy, Wernicke's encephalopathy is a rare clinical condition difficult to diagnose and may prove to be fatal. Clinical and magnetic resonance imaging findings are useful in diagnosis. We report two cases of Wernicke's encephalopathy which were caused by prolonged hyperemesis gravidarum.
