Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis

Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 2005
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare and potentially deadly condition. Common etiologies include hypercoagulable diseases, low flow states, dehydration, adjacent infectious processes, oral contraceptives, hormonal replacement therapy, pregnancy, and puerperium.

Cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis

Journal of Neurology, 2004
Cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis (CVST) can present with a variety of clinical symptoms ranging from isolated headache to deep coma. Prognosis is better than previously thought and prospective studies have reported an independent survival of more than 80% of patients.

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis associated with spontaneous heparin-induced thrombocytopenia syndrome after total knee arthroplasty

Platelets, 2020
Spontaneous heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) syndrome, characterized by clinical and serologic features of HIT despite the absence of proximate heparin exposure, can be triggered by total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Latent Cerebral Venous and Sinus Thrombosis

Journal of Neurology, 2003
The 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

Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare type of stroke indicated by the formation of blood clots within the dural venous sinuses. These are large venous conduits that are situated between the 2 layers of the dura mater which are responsible for draining blood from the brain and returning it to the systemic circulation.

Cerebral sinus venous thrombosis in children

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 2004
Objective:  Cerebral sinus venous thrombosis (cerebral SVT) is rare in children. Information on clinical characteristics, radiological findings and outcome is emerging.Methods:  Cases of cerebral SVT diagnosed between 1995 and 2001 were identified by a computer‐assisted search using International Classification of Disease codes.

Cerebral Sinus Venous Thrombosis

1994
The traditional view of thrombosis of the cerebral veins and/or sinuses (SVT) is that of a rare disease, difficult to diagnose, difficult to treat, and with a poor prognosis. Based on a number of recent findings, this concept has been revised. SVT is more frequent than previously thought but still rare compared with arterial stroke.

Septic cerebral venous sinus thrombosis

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2016
Septic 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.

Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis

2010
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) constitutes ∼1% of all stroke presentations Occurs at any age, but incidence peaks in the neonatal period and in the third decade Estimated annual incidence: adults, three to four cases per million; children or neonates, seven cases per million Female-to-male ratio: 1.5–5 to ...

Treatment of Cerebral Venous and Sinus Thrombosis

2007
Cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rather rare disease which accounts for less than 1% of all strokes. Current therapeutic measures which are used in clinical practice include the use of anticoagulants such as dose-adjusted intravenous heparin or body weight-adjusted subcutaneous low molecular weight heparin, the use of thrombolysis, and ...
