Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST)
Definition
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare medical condition characterized by the formation of a blood clot in the dural venous sinuses, which are channels responsible for draining blood from the brain. This can lead to increased intracranial pressure, hemorrhage, and impaired blood flow, potentially resulting in neurological deficits and life-threatening complications.
