Abstract
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an uncommon cause of stroke with wide variety of clinical presentations, etiological factors, imaging findings, and outcomes, and thus can be extremely challenging to diagnose. CSVT represents almost 0.5-3% of all stroke. The early diagnosis of CVT is crucial because timely and appropriate therapy can reverse the disease process and significantly reduce the risk of acute complications and long-term squeal . In this article, we have reviewed the epidemiology, causative factors, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of CVT patients admitted in neurology department in HSK hospital, Bagalkot.
