Celiac disease (CD) is a gluten-induced or gluten-sensitive enteropathy. It is considered as a chronic autoimmune disease affecting the gastrointestinal tract leading to malabsorption. CD may also affect other systems and it has been described as a disease associated with both arterial and venous thrombotic events. In this presentation, we report a case of a 16-year-old girl who had CD and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT). We emphasized that CD can be investigated in patients with CVT and it is essential to search for risk factors.
