Background: The risk of thrombosis is high in patients with Ulcerative Colitis. main location the extremity and pulmonary vein. Cerebral venous a rare for mortality. One factors developing association surgery, especially during an active phase Colitis (UC), very few studies report cases occurring inactive phase. Hence, it important surgeon to understand thrombosis, cerebral sinus patient. Case:...

background: factor v g1691a (fv leiden), fii ga20210, and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (mthfr) c677t mutations are the most common genetic risk factors for thromboembolism in the western countries. however, there is rare data in iran about cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis (cvst) patients. the aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of common genetic thrombophilic factors in c...

BACKGROUND Acute necrotizing encephalopathy is one of the most devastating neurological complications of influenza virus infection. Acute necrotizing encephalopathy preferentially affects the thalamus bilaterally, as does deep cerebral venous thrombosis, which can lead to misdiagnosis. CASE PRESENTATION A 52-year-old Japanese woman infected with seasonal influenza B virus presented to the eme...

We report the case of a woman who developed cerebral venous sinus thrombosis after an attempted epidural. The epidural was complicated by an accidental dural puncture and the ensuing headache was initially treated with an epidural blood patch. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is an uncommon condition with varying aetiology and risk factors. We discuss the importance of the differential diagnosi...

among the causes of headache, cerebral venous and/or dural sinus thrombosis (cvt) is an important challenge because of its variable clinical presentation, having negative brain ct in up to 30% of cases and unavailability of mri in some situations. on the other hand as d-dimer (dd) test has been reported to be a sensitive test for the exclusion of venous thromboembolism, we sought whether it cou...

Cerebral venous thrombosis is an uncommon, but important cause of stroke due to its high morbidity. Though conventional catheter based angiography is becoming replaced by newer, noninvasive imaging modalities, it still plays an important role in the evaluation of patients with suspected sinus or venous thrombosis. Techniques of angiography, normal anatomy and variants, and pathological drainage...

Hyperhomocysteinemia associated with methylene terahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) mutation can be a risk factor for idiopathic cerebral venous thrombosis. We describe the first case of MTHFR 677TT homozygote with cerebral venous thrombosis and livedo reticularis. A 45-year-old man presented with seizures and mottled-like skin lesions, that were aggravated by cold temperature. Hemorrhagic infarct...

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare but serious disorder that is associated with a poor clinical outcome. We report a 35-year-old man who had a severe headache and diplopia while climbing Mount Everest. His MR venography showed right transverse and right sigmoid sinus thrombosis. He improved on anticoagulant and symptomatic measures. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis at high altitu...
