[Cerebral venous thrombosis].
A review of cerebral phlebothrombosis using material from the pathology departments of the National Institute of Cardiology and the General Hospital in Mexico City is presented. The most frequent causes found were: post partum. Secondary to congenital heart disease and associated with infections. In both institutions the most frequent anatomical find was thrombosis of the superior longitudinal sinus. Isolated venous thrombi in the brain probably takes place more frequently than reported. Hemorrhagic necrosis in brain tissue is the most frequent microscopic finding, associated in variable degrees with edema and anoxic encephalopathy. A description of clinical and angiographic findings is presented.
