“…With regard to DVT, an attenuated vein sign has been described in several case reports, 13,[30][31][32][33] but its diagnostic value has never been assessed systematically. Here, we demonstrated that NCCT is very helpful in the diagnosis of DVT, as the attenuated vein sign shows both a high sensitivity and a high specificity for DVT.…”

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:With its highly variable clinical presentation, the diagnosis of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (SVT), and especially of deep venous thrombosis (DVT), as rare but important causes of stroke is challenging. Because noncontrast cranial CT (NCCT) is still the imaging technique of choice in most emergency departments, we aimed to investigate its value in the diagnosis of SVT and DVT.

“…[65][66][67][68][69][70] Pharmacological local thrombolysis is performed at our institution if the patient is in coma at the outset or if there is clinical deterioration despite full anticoagulation. Currently local thrombolysis of the cerebral venous sinuses is usually performed via the transvenous femoral route in an anaesthetised patient (fig 9).…”

ZusammenfassungDie Sinus-und Venenthrombose ist eine seltene, aber wichtige Ursache eines Schlaganfalls. Das klinische Bild ist sehr variabel, was die Diagnose erschwert. Die Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) in Kombination mit der MR-Angiographie erlaubt in der Regel den Nachweis verschlossener venöser Blutleiter. Aber auch mit der Computertomographie (CT) und CT-Venographie ist die Diagnose sicher möglich. Es gibt bisher keine standardisierte Behandlungsmethode. Üblicherweise erfolgt eine Vollheparinisierung; bei sehr großer Ausdehnung kann eine Thrombolyse versucht werden. Die Prognose ist in den meisten Fällen günstig; die Mortalitätsrate wird mit < 10% angegeben.

The clinical symptoms are variable which makes the correct diagnosis difficult. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with MR angiography allows to diagnose occluded cerebral veins. The correct diagnosis can also be made by computed tomography (CT) and CT venography. To date, no standardized therapy exists. Normally, patients will receive full heparinization, and in very severe cases an attempt at thrombolysis may be made. In most patients, the prognosis is good, and the mortality rate usually amounts to < 10%. seinem 60. Geburtstag gewidmet. Übersichtsarbeit Neuroradiologie Klinische EinleitungDie Sinus-und Venenthrombose ist eine seltene, aber wichtige Ursache eines Schlaganfalls. Sie ist für 1-2% aller Schlaganfälle im Erwachsenenalter verantwortlich [9]. Das klinische Bild ist variabel, was die Diagnose dieser potentiell letalen Erkrankung erschwert.
