Abstract

Objective: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare form of cerebrovascular disease. Intracranial hemorrhage may occur in 40% of the patients with CVT. The morphology of the intracranial hemorrhages ranges from small juxtacortical hemorrhages (JH) to large parenchymal hematomas. Although it has been suggested that JH is a characteristic of CVT, studies examining the relationship between JH and CVT are limited. In this study, it was aimed to determine the clinical, radiological, and demographic characteristics of JH in patients with CVT.
