Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a cerebrovascular disease associated with a wide variety of clinical signs and symptoms, which may often delay appropriate diagnosis. Single or multiple cranial nerve palsies (III-VIII) without evidence of other signs and symptoms have not, so far, been considered a relevant syndrome of CVT. This event turned out to be a characteristic finding in five patient...

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a relatively rare cerebrovascular disease, of which the risk has been documented in patients with numerous conditions. However, CVST has never been previously described in association with the use of a diagnostic curettage in patient with uterine fibroid. Herein, we described a 43-year-old woman who presented with recurrent convulsive seizures and seve...

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is an uncommon but potentially lethal condition that can present with headache, focal deficits, seizures, altered mental status, and papilledema. Nontraumatic dural sinus thrombosis is associated with medical conditions such as oral contraceptive use, pregnancy, dehydration, coagulopathies, connective tissue disorders, and leukemia. Traumatic dural sinus thrombo...

Objective Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare cerebrovascular disease affecting young adults. The majority of the patients are female. The aim of this study is to assess the clinical associations, risk factors and outcomes of the patients with CVST. Methods The data of 75 patients with CVST admitted to our hospital between 2006 and 2016 were reviewed. Demographic and clinical feat...

Test occlusion of a patent dural sinus requires careful hemodynamic evaluation. We performed balloon test occlusion of the sigmoid sinus in a patient with an advanced-stage temporal bone malignancy that affected the dominant sigmoid sinus. Before and during the test occlusion, intrasinus pressure was monitored upstream from the balloon via the inner lumen of a double-lumen angioplasty balloon m...

Introduction. Risk factors for thrombotic events in patients receiving treatment Hodgkin lymphoma are not well known. Administration of some cytostatic medication, especially via central venous catheter, corticosteroids, and hyperlipidemia can present them. Case outline. A case a 15-year-old boy that had been newly diagnosed with is presented here. Chemotherapy according to vincristine, etoposi...

: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) and subdural hematoma (SDH) are extremely rare in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), when conditions severe, it can endanger the life of patients. We report a case 44-year-old woman who was admitted to our hospital due multiple paroxysmal headaches, dizziness, seizures for 20 days. In past 2 years, she had severe thrombocytopenia. Her bra...

When tinnitus is pulse-synchronous, a vascular etiology is suggested. We present a case of persistent and troublesome pulsatile tinnitus caused by a transverse-sigmoid sinus diverticulum that was endovascularly treated with stent-assisted coiling. A 39-yearold woman presented with a 4-year history of progressive pulsatile tinnitus involving the right ear. Slight pulsatile bruit was heard on the...
