Those most commonly affected are the superior sagittal sinus, transverse sinus, and sigmoid sinus (1). Isolated cortical vein thrombosis is a relatively rare entity. Typical parenchymal findings are ...

SP has been associated with developmental venous anomalies such as persistent primitive falcine sinus, hypoplasia, or malposition of the straight or transverse sinuses, and aneurysmal ...

Background Transverse sinus stenosis (TSS) and sigmoid sinus wall anomalies (SSWAs) are the most common causes of pulsatile tinnitus (PT). While these conditions may co-occur, they usually require ...

While transverse sinus stenosis (TSS) is often present in patients with IIH, how and why it occurs remains unclear. Methods IIH patients and a set of age-matched normal controls were identified from ...

So maybe 2.5% risk of severe vision loss per surgery. For the last decade or two people have been looking at performing venous sinus stenting, as we have learned that stenosis between the transverse ...

Transverse sinus thrombosis is a rare type of stroke caused by a blood clot in the brain. It requires immediate medical care to prevent life threatening complications. This condition falls under ...

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (A and B) shows intraluminal filling defects in sagittal sinus (white arrow in A) and transverse right sinus (black arrow in B), surrounded by contrast (the empty ...

Aim: To characterise the ophthalmic indications for, and ophthalmic efficacy of, transverse sinus stenting in adults with medically refractory idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Results: Medically ...

The most prominent dural venous channel is the superior sagittal sinus, which drains posteriorly into the transverse (lateral) sinuses and thence into the internal jugular veins on each side.

Computed tomography (CT) of the head showed thrombosis in the left transverse and sigmoid sinuses. Because of the low platelet count, a reduced dose of dalteparin (2500 IU daily) was given.
