[Venous infarcts].
Venous infarcts are uncommon and frequently misdiagnosed as arterial infarcts, intracerebral haemorrhages or tumours on CT. Cerebral venous thrombosis is a condition with large variety of causes. However, in 20 to 35% of causes, no cause is found. The clinical features depend on the location of venous thrombosis. Clinical signs are mainly headache, hemiparesis, cranial nerves paresis, epilepsy, TIA. The question about the proper way of treatment and duration of treatment remains open.
