In this report, we describe a patient who developed severe headache following epidural analgesia for labor and delivery. Although the epidural puncture had been reported to be uneventful, headache was initially suspected to result from an accidental dural puncture. After the headache worsened, a
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), while rare, is a challenging diagnosis. It can be easily missed as the presenting symptom can be just a mild headache. However, if missed and left untreated, it can lead to multiple complications, even death. There are certain risk factors that should make one
We report MRI and angiographic findings of an unusual giant arachnoid granulation in the left sigmoid sinus in a boy with headache. Its signal intensity was lower than that of cerebral cortex on T1-weighted images and higher on T2 weighting, mimicking dural sinus thrombosis.
Two cases of headache during pregnancy were associated with MRI findings suggestive of venous sinus thrombosis. The findings, however, were atypical, and of uncertain clinical significance. Venous sinus thrombosis typically does not occur during the first and second trimesters (less than 10 percent
This is a report of a 24-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department (ED) at Imam Hossein Hospital in Tehran, Iran with a one-week history of headache and agitation following her father's death. Before presenting to our ED, a diagnosis of conversion reaction was suggested by three
Dural Venous Sinus Thrombosis (DVST) is a sporadic cause of headache. DVST is a recherché complication of maxillary sinus infection. Maxillary sinusitis infection may spread directly to orbit via lamina papyracea and it is expedited by the presence veins of breschet. The authors present a clinical
OBJECTIVE
Dural sinus thrombosis commonly presents with headache, and rarely with tinnitus. These thromboses can progress to neurologic impairment and death. We are sharing recent clinical experiences with these thromboses as they present to the otologist.
METHODS
We report the presentation,
In this report we describe a patient who developed severe headache following uneventful continuous epidural analgesia for labour and delivery. Initially it was thought that she had a spinal headache. However, with the aid of Magnetic Resonance Imaging the diagnosis of cerebral venous thrombosis was
Otitis media chronica cholesteatomatica with cerebral sigmoid sinus thrombosis is an important differential diagnosis in the evaluation of headache. We describe a 31-year-old Filipino man with chief complaints of headache, otalgia, vomiting, and vertigo, and no significant past medical history. Two
Headache is the most common symptom of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT); however, the detailed underlying mechanisms and characteristics of headache in CVT have not been well described. Here, we report two cases of CVT whose primary and lasting presentation was orthostatic headache, suggestive of
The main aim of this study is to look for early clinical markers of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT). As headache represents the major clinical manifestation at presentation we focused our attention on this symptom. We present the preliminary results of a prospective multicentric study that includes
BACKGROUND
Diagnosing cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) in patients referring to emergency service or neurology outpatient unit with complaints of headache is a challenging task. Magnetic resonance (MR) venography is the gold standard, but there are limitations regarding its use.
OBJECTIVE
To
Two patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) subsequently developed cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) when their headache lost its distinctive orthostatic characteristic. In addition to typical MRI features of tonsillar descent, subdural fluid collections, and diffuse pachymeningeal
A 31 year old woman presented with the worst headache of her life and was diagnosed with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) by routine unenhanced computed tomography (CT) scan, subsequently confirmed with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance venography (MRV). Awareness of
Cough headache may be the clinical manifestation, sometimes isolated, of an intracranial disease. There are several possible causes of secondary cough headache. The hypothesis that cough headache may be the expression of spontaneous intracranial hypotension has been advanced only recently. In fact,
