Cerebral sinus thrombosis with tamoxifen

Neurology, 2001
To the Editor: The case reported by Finelli and Schauer1 raises interesting points about the physiologic patterns of venous flow across the transverse sinuses. In 50 to 80% of cases, there is an asymmetry in flow across the transverse sinuses, with up to 5% of cases displaying agenesis of part or all of one transverse sinus, which should not be ...

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1950
WITH the advent of the sulfonamides and, later, of penicillin and streptomycin, thrombosis of the cavernous sinus has passed from the list of unsolvable otolaryngologic problems. This condition has been considered an otolaryngologic problem for the reason that the causes of thrombosis of the cavernous sinus are chiefly diseases of the nose and ear and ...

POSTOPERATIVE SINUS THROMBOSIS

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1929
In 1929 I reported 154 cases of otitic sinus thrombosis with a mortality rate of 22 per cent. Among these cases were 22 in which the classic symptoms of sinus thrombosis were not manifested until after the performance of the mastoid operation. An exhaustive study of these 22 cases revealed that they included two well defined types of sinus thrombosis ...
