“…Thus, it was not evident if these CVST cases were of idiopathic origin if there was some other cause or risk factor. As such, a total of 63 publications describing 76 cases were analyzed since they met inclusion and exclusion criteria [ 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , …”

Background: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare manifestation of thrombosis commonly caused by thrombophilia, hormonal-related factors, non-cerebral malignancy, and hematologic diseases. The aim of this review was to identify and summarize rare CVST cases. Methods: A literature search of the Medline database was performed in November 2022. CVST cases of a common cause were excluded. Demographic and clinical data were extracted. Eligible cases were categorized into inflammatory, primary CNS tumors, post-operative/traumatic, and idiopathic groups to allow statistical group comparisons. Results: 76 cases were analyzed. Idiopathic CVST was most frequently reported followed by inflammatory, post-traumatic/operative and primary CNS tumor causes. The intracranial hemorrhage rate was 23.7% and it was found to increase in the inflammatory group (45.8%). Anticoagulation was used in the majority of cases and it was significantly related to better outcomes. A low rate of anticoagulation use (43.8%) was found among CVST cases in the post-operative/traumatic group. The overall mortality rate was 9.8%. 82.4% of patients showed significant early improvement. Conclusions: Most rare CVST cases were either of idiopathic or inflammatory origin. Interestingly, hemorrhage occurred often he idiopathic CVST cases. A low rate of anticoagulation use in neurosurgical CVST cases after trauma or head surgery was observed.

“…Inflammatory bowel diseases including ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease are known to be prothrombotic states with increased with venous thromboembolic episodes this has been reported in multiple studies in case reports. [1][2][3][4][5] Cerebral venous thrombosis is an uncommon cause of stroke with age group less than 50 years old more effected than those over the age of 50. Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare complication of IBD and is noted be more common in ulcerative colitis than Crohn disease and is more common during fare ups of disease.…”

“…Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare complication of IBD and is noted be more common in ulcerative colitis than Crohn disease and is more common during fare ups of disease. 5,6 A flare up of systemic inflammatory response and presence of anemia significantly increase the risk of CVT. 6,7 CVT can present in myriad ways and the rare nature of this diagnosis further decreases the odds of early and correct diagnosis.…”

Ulcerative Colitis is an autoimmune Inflammatory Bowel Disease causing abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea and malnutrition and is associated with Intestinal and extra intestinal complications. The clinical course has remissions and flare ups. Thromboembolism is known risk associated with Ulcerative colitis. Here we present a case of a young man who presented with a flare up of ulcerative colitis and developed neurological deficits that were diagnosed as due to cerebral venous thrombosis. Cerebral venous thrombosis is rare complications rare complication of ulcerative colitis and maybe missed without proper work up and consideration of diagnosis.
