Özet
Serebral sinus ven trombozu (SSVT) nöbet, bilinç kaybı, fokal nörolojik defisitler, inme ve intrakraniyal hipertansiyonu içeren farklı semptomlarla sonuçlanan, dural venlerdeki tromboz varlığıdır. Görme kaybı, kraniyal sinir felçleri eşlik etsin veya etmesin, baş ağrısı en sık intrakraniyal hipertansiyon semptomudur. SSVT, cinsiyet hormonları, gebelik ve lohusalık gibi özel predispozan risk faktörleri nedeniyle kadınlarda daha sık görüldüğünden, olgular baş ağrısı şikayeti olan kadınlarda yaşamı tehdit eden bu acil nörolojik tablonun önemini vurgulamak amacıyla sunuldu.
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CSVT) is the presence of thrombosis in the dural vein, result- ing with a variety of symptoms including seizure, loss of consciousness, focal neurological defi- cits, stroke and intracranial hypertension. Headache is the most common symptom of intracranial hypertension with or without vision loss, cranial nerve palsies. Since CSVT is more common in women regarding to the predisposing risk factors such as sex hormones, pregnancy, puerperium, which are unique to women, we reported these cases in order to emphasize the importance of con- sidering this life-threatening, neurological emergency in women with headache complaint.
