Glasgow Coma Scale ≤ 12 at Admission is a Predictor of Poor Functional Outcome (mRS 2–6) at One Year in Patients with Cerebral Venous Thrombosis
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a relatively uncommon cause of stroke with reported annual incidence of 0.2 –1.57 per hundred thousand population.1 Although the exact incidence of the disease in India is not known it is believed to be more common than western population especially in the young. It may occur in as much as 15–20% of all strokes occurring in age less than 40 years.2 The mean age in a lar ge series from India was around 30 years.3 Over the last few decades, the mortality rates of CVT have declined to around 4–5% due to improved diagnostic imaging, better therapeutics, and hospital care.
