Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis following Russell's viper (Daboia russelii) envenomation: A case report and review of the literature
We report a previously healthy middle-aged Indian female who developed cerebral venous sinus thrombosis preceded by features of disseminated bleeding diathesis following Russell's viper bite. The cerebral venous sinus thrombosis was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging. The patient responded well to treatment with antivenom and subcutaneous enoxaparin and had no demonstrable neurological deficits at three months of follow-up.PMID:36041514 | DOI:10.1016/j.toxicon.2022.08.014
