Overview
Common complications of cerebral venous thrombosis include neurological deficits, coma, and death.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- The symptoms of cerebral venous thrombosis(CVT) usually develop in the first decade of life, and start with symptoms such as headache, seizures, neurological deficits, visual impairment, decreased level of consciousness. [1][2]
- 15% of patients with CVT may progress to develop residual epilepsy, cognitive impairment, recurrent CVT or systemic thromboembolism.
Complications
- Common complications of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) include:
- Hydrocephalus[2][1]
- Cognitive impairment
- Neurological deficit
- Residual epilepsy
- Coma
- Death
Prognosis
The prognosis of CVT is favorable than other strokes. Complete functional recovery has been reported in 75% of patients but 15% of patients die or become dependent.[3] Study showed women has better prognosis than men. 81% of women recovered completely while only 71 % of men had so.[4] Recurrent thrombosis is a common complication in CVT, around 6.5% per year but mostly in patients who are not on anticoagualnts.[3]
