Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in traumatic brain injury: A systematic review of its complications, effect on mortality, diagnostic and therapeutic management, and follow-up

ConclusionCurrently, the available evidence is insufficient for evidence-based treatment of CVST in the setting of TBI. However, there are clear indications in the presently available literature that CVST in TBI is associated with complications and increased mortality, and this indicates that management options for the condition must be considered. Further studies are needed to confirm the effects of CVST on TBI patients and to provide evidence to support management decisions.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifier: PROSPERO [CRD42021247833].
