“…CVI is most common in patients with CVT or venous sinus thrombosis (Coutinho et al, 2014 ) but can also be secondary to trauma (Harris et al, 2021 ) or iatrogenic cortical venous injury (Cai et al, 2021 ). Pregnant or postpartum women and young women taking contraceptives are considered high-risk groups and account for 75% of CVT cases (Farooqui et al, 2021 ). Acute or subacute onset mainly manifests as headache, focal neurological deficits, and seizures, among others.…”

Case report: An illusive cortical venous infarction mimicking glioma hemorrhage

Cortical vein thrombosis (CVT) is a rare subtype of cerebral venous thrombosis. Because CVT is rare and its clinical and imaging findings are atypical, the misdiagnosis of CVT may be extremely high. We report a case of cortical venous infarction (CVI) secondary to CVT. Due to the atypical symptoms, we were perplexed about confirming the diagnosis between CVI and glioma hemorrhage. Eventually, CVT was confirmed by pathology combined with imaging.
