The anticoagulant agents heparin and warfarin were introduced before the era of randomised clinical trials.

متن کاملCerebral venous thrombosis: anticoagulants or thrombolyic therapy?
After Ribes’ initial description in 1825 of a patient with cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), this disorder was universally considered to be fatal, the diagnosis being made at postmortem. In the past 3 decades, as a result of the development and increasing availability of non-invasive neuroimaging techniques, CVT is increasingly recognised, not just in the neurology or neurosurgery wards but now...
