Cerebral vein thrombosis

Internal and Emergency Medicine, 2009
Advances in neuroimaging have modified our knowledge on cerebral vein thrombosis (CVT). This disease is now diagnosed more frequently, and increasing evidence as to what are the most common risk factors and on the natural history of the disease is becoming available. Most patients with CVT have a benign prognosis: only a minority of patients die during

Anatomy of Cerebral Veins and Sinuses

2007
The veins of the brain have no muscular tissue in their thin walls and possess no valves. They emerge from the brain and lie in the subarachnoid space. They pierce the arachnoid mater and the meningeal layer of the dura and drain into the cranial venous sinuses. The cerebral venous system can be divided into a superficial and a deep system.

Thrombophilia and Cerebral Vein Thrombosis

2007
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a multifactorial disease. The idiopathic form represents 12.5% of all CVTs and is diagnosed by excluding known risk factors. As for any form of venous thromboembolism, thrombophilia should be suspected in patients with recurrent CVT or less than 45 years of age or positive family history for venous thrombosis or no ...

Cerebral vein thrombosis

Thrombosis Research, 2013
The estimated annual incidence of cerebral vein thrombosis (CVT) is 3 to 4 cases per million in adults and 7 cases per million in neonates. Among the commonest risk factors there are oral contraceptive use, pregnancy and puerperium that make CVT more frequent in women than in men.

Internal Cerebral Vein Thrombosis

Archives of Neurology, 1973
Two patients had cerebral venous thrombosis localized to the deep venous system. In one case the diagnosis was made antemortem by means of cerebral angiography and a ventricular shunting procedure was performed because of impending hydrocephalus. This patient survived with minimal neurologic sequelae.

Aneurysm of a superior cerebral vein

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1976
✓ Among 880 specimens of cerebral dura mater with enclosed sinuses, one had a sharply delineated bulbous conformation of the distal segment of a superior cerebral vein. There was no evidence of an arteriovenous malformation. Early plaque formation was present in the inner aspect of the thick wall of the dilated segment of vein.

The posterior cerebral vein

Neuroradiology, 1970
The authors reviewed 95 carotid angiographies and 5 vertebral angiographies. In this material the posterior cerebral vein was visible in 30 cases. Its normal radiological anatomy was studied and the signs of a tumoral infiltration of the splenium corporis callosi was described.

Cerebral Veins and Sinuses

2006
Transcranial ultrasonography is an established and reliable method for the evaluation of the arteries of the circle of Willis, even at the patient's bedside. Examination of cerebral veins and sinuses is a new application, which has been developed during the recent years.

Epidemiology of Cerebral Vein and Sinus Thrombosis

2007
Cerebral venous thrombosis is a serious but potentially treatable cerebrovascular disorder that, unlike arterial cerebrovascular disorder, often affects young adults and children. Cerebral venous thrombosis is a challenging condition for the clinicians because of the wide spectrum of its clinical presentation.
