Subarachnoid hemorrhage is typically due to an aneurysmal rupture. Cerebral venous thrombosis is a rare cause, especially if the clinical presentation is atypical. We report a patient with unusual acute headaches, with an entirely normal physical examination. His cerebral MRI, and cerebral venous angio-MRI documented a cerebral venous thrombosis associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage. The outcome was favorable with anticoagulant treatment.

Cortical Venous Thrombosis

Isolated cortical venous thrombosis (ICVT) occurring in the absence of dural venous thrombosis, constitutes about 2%–5% of all cerebral venous thrombosis. Its vague, non-specific presentation makes it a difficult and challenging diagnosis that needs an extensive workup especially in young patients. Outcome and prognosis depend mainly on early diagnosis and treatment. Here we discuss the clinical presentation, diagnosis and the treatment of a young woman diagnosed with ICVT with acute ischaemic venous stroke, in the setting of eclampsia and family history of coagulation disease.

The article describes a clinical case of cerebral venous thrombosis involving the deep venous system in a 42-year-old patient suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia. As the patient’s condition progressively deteriorated despite anticoagulant therapy, endovascular treatment was attempted. Transvenous thrombectomy and local thrombolysis were performed, which made it possible to achieve only partial recanalization. Further prolonged administration of alteplase into the cerebral sinus through a microcatheter facilitated complete recanalization of the direct and transverse sinuses. The restoration of blood flow was accompanied by regression of neurological deficit. This case is discussed in the context of modern approaches to endovascular treatment of cerebral venous thrombosis.
