Background: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (sinovenous) (CSVT) is a rare and yet an important cause of morbidity and mortality in neonates. The Canadian registry quotes an incidence of 41 per 100,000 newborns per year. Cerebral sinovenous thrombosis is rarely reported in preterm infants. Although it is a potentially devastating condition with poor neuro developmental outcome, the risk factors...

Sinovac is an inactivated virus COVID 19 vaccine given emergency authorization for Pandemic. Different adverse reactions have been seen in after marketing of vaccines. Here we present a case patient who developed cerebral venous sinus thrombosis two weeks the first dose SINOVAC vaccine.

Cerebral venous thrombosis is a potentially lethal disease. Early diagnosis is essential to improve its prognosis. However, its early diagnosis based on conventional imaging modalities remains a challenge in clinical settings. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether bright sinus appearance on arterial spin-labeling perfusion-weighted image (ASL-PWI) could help identify cerebral venous...

See related article, p 2180. Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) refers to local clot formation and occlusion of intracranial venous structures, including the dural venous sinuses, cortical veins, and the proximal part of the jugular veins, leading to an acute or delayed manifestation with a large variety of symptoms and signs, making the diagnosis difficult. Diagnostics have improved after introd...

Cerebral venous thrombosis is a treatable and under-recognised cause of a benign intracranial hypertension syndrome, and may also cause focal signs, seizures, and depression of consciousness.

c erebral venous sinus thrombosis is an uncommon condition, which over the past 10 years has been diagnosed more frequently due to greater awareness and the availability of better non-invasive diagnostic techniques. Because of the generally good prognosis and variable clinical signs, many cases remain clinically undetected but some patients suffer complications and die. CVST is slightly more co...

Cerebral venous thrombosis is an infrequent condition characterized by extreme variability in its clinical presentation and mode of onset. The combination of magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance angiography is currently the best method for diagnosis. The proportion of cases of unknown etiology remains high. The prognosis, although better than previously thought, remains unpredictab...

Two articles in this issue of Stroke 1,2 draw our attention to cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), an infrequent but fascinating condition, remarkable for its extreme diversity, which still makes it a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Headache, focal deficits, seizures, disorders of consciousness, and papilledema, which can present in isolation or in association, are the most frequent signs.3...

thrombocytosis (both primary and secondary), leukocytosis, sicklecell disease, hyperhomocysteinemia, hemoconcentration due to a multitude of causes, hypereosinophilia and antiphospholipid antibody (APLA) syndromes.2 As mentioned already, almost always more than one cause coexists in each patient, which is found out only on good clinical evaluation and not by laboratory studies alone. To compoun...
