Abstract Background Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) occurs rarely in the general population and is frequently associated with confused clinical findings and delayed diagnosis. Isolated cerebellar cortical vein thrombosis is a very rare phenomenon. Case presentation This report describes a case with CVT, which is manifested as space-occupying lesions of the cerebellar hemisphere and mimics a cerebellar tumor at the beginning. The diagnosis of CVT was finalized given the laboratory and brain biopsy findings. The etiology may be related to polycythemia vera with Janus Kinase 2 V617F mutation. Conclusion Isolated cerebellar vein thrombosis should be considered when swelling and enhancing cerebellar lesions are detected. Polycythemia vera, especially with a positive JAK2 V617F mutation, may be a rare risk factor for CVT.

Cortical Venous Thrombosis

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) associated with subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) has never been reported. Here, we report on a case of a 33-year-old woman with SIH, who developed simple partial sensory seizures 3 weeks later. Neuroimaging studies, including brain computed tomography and angiography, were initially normal, but revealed an isolated cortical venous thrombosis at 3 weeks. One week later, brain magnetic resonance imaging showed SAH around the thrombosed cortical vein. We postulate that the decline in the venous blood flow velocity due to SIH may have resulted in cortical venous thrombosis, which in turn led to rupture of the vessel wall and SAH in this patient.
