Abstract

Cerebral venous thrombosis imagiologic features In a Pregnant Woman Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a relatively rare but serious condition potentially reversible upon accurate diagnosis and adequate therapy. The peri-partum state and pregnancy are predisposing factors and TVC accounts for about 6% of maternal deaths. Its clinical symptoms depend on the the thrombus site and extension, and also on the existing collateral vessels network. We present the case of a 33 year-old woman, 13 weeks pregnant, that complained of headaches and whose cranial magnetic resonance imaging revealed a subtotal oclusion of the superior sagittal sinus. We discuss the imaging features of dural venous thrombosis in the acute phase. © 2011 CELOM.
