La trombosis venosa cerebral es una entidad con manifestaciones clínicas poco específicas y presentación similar a otro tipo de patologías neurológicas, por lo que su identificación temprana y diagnóstico puede volverse complejo. Es indispensable realizar un abordaje diagnóstico adecuado con especial atención en la identificación de factores de riesgo asociados y en la importancia de los estudios por imagen para el diagnóstico oportuno. El tratamiento de la trombosis venosa cerebral no está definido con claridad y la evidencia actual sugiere la anticoagulación de manera inicial con heparina de bajo peso molecular y, posteriormente, con anticoagulantes orales directos o antagonistas de vitamina K.

“…The actual prevalence is probably higher, despite increasingly sensitive diagnostic methods [3.4]. In adults, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis the proportion of females is 75% and this predominance is restricted only to the fertile age, as it is not seen in the pediatric population, because of the absence of sex-specific risk factors [5,6]. Same as in adults, the most frequently involved sinuses are superior sagittal and the transverse sinuses.…”

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) in childhood is a rare disorder, occurring most often in the neonatal period, with mortality approaching 10%. This condition has multifactorial etiology including common childhood illnesses such as fever, infection, dehydration, and anemia, as well as acute and chronic medical conditions such as congenital heart disease, nephrotic syndrome, and malignancy. Thrombosis can also develop and propagate in response to local venous stasis. A large number of children have coincident local head or neck pathology, including head trauma, brain tumors, or recent intracranial surgery. Clinical symptoms are frequently nonspecific and include seizures, depressed level of consciousness, coma, lethargy, nausea, vomiting, headache, visual impairment, papilledema, and hemiparesis, which may often obscure the diagnosis and delay treatment. In the case of patients with neurological symptoms, imaging studies such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are invaluable in diagnostics of various pathologies of the nervous system, because of their non-invasiveness, high sensitivity, and specificity. Early diagnosis with management along with a plan for secondary prevention can save from catastrophic consequences.

Purpose of Review Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare cause of stroke that most commonly affects younger women. Here, we review new literature relevant to the management and prognosis of individuals with CVT and ongoing areas of uncertainty. Recent Findings Direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are being increasingly integrated into routine care but are not yet recommended by guidelines. Recent randomized clinical trials and available case series offer reassuring safety data. Routine use of endovascular therapy is not associated with improved outcomes. The relationship between recanalization and prognosis is uncertain. Summary The evidence base for management of CVT continues to improve. Ongoing areas of uncertainty include duration of therapy and whether certain subgroups of patients may benefit from neurointervention or personalized approaches to antithrombotic strategy. The state of knowledge will continue to benefit from large collaborative international efforts, and integration of patient partnerships to identify research priorities.

Cerebral Venous Thrombosis: What's New?

Abstract: Thrombosis of the cerebral veins and sinuses (CVT) is a distinct cerebrovascular disorder that, unlike arterial stroke, most often affects children and young adults, especially women. In this review, we will summarize recent advances on the knowledge of patients with CVT.
