Management of a Patient with a Venous Sinus Thrombosis with or without an Intracerebral Haematoma
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition, whose diagnosis is often missed or delayed due to often non-specific presentations. However, if diagnosed and managed appropriately prognosis is generally favourable. This Element covers the common presentations and epidemiology of CVST, progressing through the approach to investigation and management of this condition in the acute, sub-acute and more chronic timeframes.
