Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis complicated by subdural hematomas: Case series and literature review
A 38-year-old woman on oral contraceptives presented with headache and difficulty speaking. She had no other significant past medical history. A left frontal SDH and left temporal venous infarct with a left transverse sinus thrombosis was demonstrated on CT and MRI []. A hypercoagulable work-up did not reveal any additional thrombophilias. She was initially managed with systemic anticoagulation using intravenous heparin. After serial neurologic examinations and repeat CT, head imaging demonstrated no further bleeding; she was transitioned to oral warfarin and discharged home. She had excellent neurologic recovery (modified Rankin score 0) at 3 months follow up visit.
