Latent Cerebral Venous and Sinus Thrombosis
Journal of Neurology, 2003The incidence of cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis (CVST) is still unknown. Several assumptions of the incidence have been made. In the one and only series of consecutive brain autopsies series by Towbin in 1973 CVST was found in 10,9 % of patients aged 60 years or more. These findings suggest that the true incidence of CVST is higher than generally

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2016Septic cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, once a common and deadly disease, has fortunately become rare now. Not only that the incidence has fallen significantly after the antibiotic era, the morbidity and mortality has also decreased substantially. Cavernous sinus thrombosis is by far the commonest form of septic cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.

Dural sinus and cerebral venous thrombosis
Neurosurgical Review, 1983Eighty patients with 'primary' dural sinus and cerebral venous thrombosis were seen over a period of 16 years. There was an equal distribution amongst the sexes and the largest number of patients presented in the third decade. The commonest predisposing factors were puerperium, pregnancy, synthetic steroid contraceptives and anaemia.
