Rare cases with recurrent reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) have been published. The authors analyzed the recurrence risk of RCVS in a large Taiwanese cohort; 210 patients with a definite RCVS were followed up during a mean period of about 3 ± 2 years, with slightly less than 20% of cases lost to follow-up, leaving 168 patients for the final analysis.1
