Introduction: There is little data on the role of endovascular treatment (EVT) of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) due to vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT). Here, we describe clinical characteristics and outcomes of CVST-VITT patients who were treated with EVT.
Patients And Methods: We report data from an international registry of patients who developed CVST within 28 days of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, reported between 29 March 2021 and 6 March 2023.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the treatment of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) caused by vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) following adenovirus-based COVID-19 vaccinations.
- Researchers analyzed data from 99 patients across 17 countries to assess adherence to recommended treatments, including immunomodulation and avoiding certain anticoagulants.
- While overall adherence to these treatment guidelines did not significantly impact mortality, patients who received immunomodulation showed lower mortality rates compared to those who did not.
Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on patients who developed cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) after receiving SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, specifically ChAdOx1 (Oxford-AstraZeneca) and Ad26.COV2.S (Johnson & Johnson), particularly looking at those with thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS) versus those without.
- - Data was gathered from an international registry from 81 hospitals spanning 19 countries, highlighting the clinical characteristics and mortality rates of patients with CVST in relation to their vaccination status.
- - Of 116 postvaccination CVST patients, 67.2% had TTS, predominantly after the ChAdOx1 vaccine, with a notable percentage of female patients and
