Cerebral venous sinuses thrombosis in both transverse sinus and torcula: Multistep endovascular treatment and stenting.

CONCLUSION: This result shows that mechanical clot disruption, intrasinus thrombolysis and reconstruction of wall sinuses with stenting can be an endovascular option in the severe form of CVST with intracerebral hemorrhage and rapid worsening of neurological symptoms. Although this type of treatment can re-channel the occluded sinuses, further comparative and randomized studies are needed to clarify its efficacy versus other therapeutic modalities.
