AbstractAnaplastic oligodendrogliomas (AOs) correspond to ∼ 23% of all oligodendrogliomas. They correspond to a tumor with malignant histological characteristics, focal or diffuse, associated with a worse prognosis. In the present case report, we describe the case of a 30-year-old female submitted to resection of a right parietal lesion whose histology showed to be an AO. She underwent complementary treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy according to the Roger Stupp protocol. Four years after the initial diagnosis, there was tumor recurrence within the superior sagittal sinus, with no evidence of recurrence elsewhere. In the literature, we have found no similar published case reinforcing the rarity of this condition

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVT) is an uncommon yet serious condition. While CVT has many known precipitants and etiologies, hyperthyroidism as a precipitant of CVT is not well understood. This study reported a case of a 41-year-old male with a 4-year history of hyperthyroidism presented with seizure. Consequently, a diagnosis of superior sagittal sinus thrombosis was confirmed by computed tomography and magnetic resonance (MR) venograms. Extensive investigations yielded no apparent underlying cause, but laboratory findings were consistent with uncontrolled hyperthyroidism. The patient improved rapidly following anticoagulation. Follow-up MR and MRV scans 2 months after treatment revealed full recanalization of the superior sagittal sinus. This case report highlighted hyperthyroidism, as a procoagulant condition, resulting specifically in superior sagittal sinus thrombosis.
