Abstract

The article presents the medical case of a 23-year-old woman with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). The patient underwent magnetic resonance venography (MRV), ventriculoperitoneal shunt insertion, and ventriculoperitoneal shunting. Moreover, venous sinus thrombosis (VST) in a patient with IIH could be due to more than a coincidence of risk factors and lateral sinuses are well recognised to taper in patient diagnosed with IHH.

Author

Lovett JK and Pinto A

Abstract

Cerebral (or dural) venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a condition distinct from other cerebrovascular disease, which presents its own particular diagnostic difficulties and treatment controversies. The clinical presentation is variable and may mimic a wide range of other neurological disorders that include subarachnoid haemorrhage, encephalitis, eclampsia, idiopathic intracranial hypertension and arterial stroke.
