Overview

Retrospective study evaluates surgical decompression effectiveness in cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, suggesting critical timing improves outcomes.

Key Points

  • Evaluate the effectiveness of surgical decompression in managing cerebral venous sinus thrombosis.
  • Retrospective observational study of patients who underwent surgical decompression for CVST from 2014 to 2023.
  • Analysis of clinical, radiological, surgical, and long-term follow-up data.
  • Focus on patients' presentations, decisions for surgery, and outcomes measured by the modified Rankin scale.
  • 24 patients underwent surgical decompression, predominantly young individuals with headaches.
  • Surgical decisions were made within 24 hours of admission for 20 patients.
  • Mean follow-up period was 14 months; many reported good recovery on the modified Rankin scale.
