Title: Dural sinus thrombosis with marked enlargement of the venous sinus--case report. Author: Kodera T, Hirose S, Takeuchi H, Kikuta K. Journal: Neurol Med Chir (Tokyo); 2010 Jan; 50(1):59-61.

Systemic anticoagulant therapy was effective without hemorrhagic complication.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
