What is Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST)?

Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST) occurs when blood clots form in the veins that carry blood away from the brain. This blockage prevents proper drainage, leading to increased pressure within the brain and potential damage to brain tissue.

CVST is a serious medical condition that requires urgent diagnosis and treatment.

Common symptoms may include:

Initial treatment usually involves blood-thinning medications to prevent the clot from worsening. In severe cases, advanced procedures such as thrombectomy are required to physically remove the clot and restore blood flow.
