Cerebral venous thrombosis is a rare condition than arterial oclusive disease of brain. While sagittal and cavernous sinus thrombosis are frequently seen, transverse sinus thrombosis is rare.

Non-contrast brain tomography, one of the imaging methods commonly used in patients with a headache in the emergency room, should be evaluated well.
