CEREBRAL SINUS VENOUS THROMBOSIS IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS PATIENTABSTRACTCerebral sinus venous thrombosis (CSVT) may sometimes be associated with autoimmune disorder like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It is characterized by dural venous thrombosis which can cause variety of symptoms including headache, convulsion, motor weakness, and decreased level of consciousness. Thrombosis often occurs in the lower extremities in postpartum women due to prolonged bed rest and caesarean section. We reported a 33-year-old woman, who presented with chief complaint of weakness in the left arm and leg, a history of headache and seizures, the following 3 weeks, she had swelling and pain which started at the tip of the left foot then right leg and to the waist. D-dimer level was increased with positive ANA test. Diagnostic investigations include non-contrast head CT scan, CTV, DSA, Doppler ultrasound and thoracoabdominal vasculare CT. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) was given for 5 days, continued with oral anticoagulant.Keywords: Cerebral sinus venous thrombosis, deep vein thrombosis, LMWH, postpartum, systemic lupus erythematosusABSTRAKCerebral sinus venous thrombosis (CSVT) dapat berkaitan dengan gangguan autoimun seperti systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
