Cerebral vein thrombosis as an exceptional cause of transient ischemic attack.
Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases : the Official Journal of National Stroke Association 2012 November
We present a case of transient ischemic attack (TIA) as an extremely rare presentation of cerebral vein thrombosis. A 41-year-old man presented with a headache and episodes of hypoesthesia on his left side lasting approximately 30 minutes. Several vascular risk factors were remarkable in his medical history. The neurologic examination was normal. TIA of arterial origin was excluded by detailed investigations. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed acute thrombosis of the right superficial middle cerebral vein and the vein of Trolard. TIA-like episodes stopped with anticoagulation. Head trauma a few days earlier was the most likely mechanism of venous thrombosis. We suggest that the patients with TIA and headache should be carefully investigated in terms of cerebral venous thrombosis.
