Patients who were vaccinated against COVID-19 have experienced thrombosis-thrombocytopenia syndrome and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). It is important to be aware of this potential side effect of the vaccine and to be able to recognize early clinical symptoms and signs of CVST. In this paper, we present two cases of COVID-19 vaccination-related CVST. The patients who suffered headaches and seizures were found to have CVST, which was treated with anticoagulation.

Among acute mastoiditis (AM) complications, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is particularly severe, leading to increased intracranial pressure and potential neurological sequelae. Predicting the development of such complications is challenging. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the incidence, clinical characteristics, and risk factors for the development of CVST in AM.

Patients with cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) may experience poor response to anticoagulant therapy and delayed surgical treatment may lead to clinical deterioration. However, the factors contributing to clinical deterioration remain poorly understood. Patients with CVT from three centers between January 2017 and October 2023 were included and grouped as the development cohort and validation cohort.
