BACKGROUND Eclampsia is a generalized tonic-clonic seizure induced by pregnancy.It contributes to a high rate of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide.Eclampsia is characterised by classic signs such as elevated blood pressure,proteinuria,and seizures.However,it may occur in the absence of hypertension and/or proteinuria.The uncommon appearance of eclampsia makes it difficult to immediately assess and treat it.In addition,the occurrence of this case in a remote area makes it more challenging to handle.The objective of this case report is to increase awareness of uncommon manifestations of eclampsia,particularly in limited-resource settings.CASE SUMMARY A young primigravida experienced a generalised seizure without hypertension and/or proteinuria.Sudden hearing loss,blurred vision,and vomiting were complained about before the seizure attack.The patient was diagnosed with eclampsia.A loading dose of magnesium sulphate was administered immediately.The patient was referred from community healthcare to a hospital and discharged without any complications.CONCLUSION Atypical eclampsia may be a diagnostic challenge.However,other symptoms may be beneficial,such as awareness of eclampsia signs.
