  • Title: Isolated cortical venous thrombosis and ulcerative colitis.
    Author: Derdeyn CP, Powers WJ.
    Journal: AJNR Am J Neuroradiol; 1998 Mar; 19(3):488-90. PubMed ID: 9541304.
    Abstract:
    Aseptic cortical venous thrombosis is rare without concomitant dural sinus thrombosis. Ulcerative colitis is associated with both dural sinus thrombosis and isolated cortical venous thrombosis. We describe a 26-year-old woman with ulcerative colitis who had a spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage. An overlying thrombosed cortical vein was identified on spin-echo MR images and confirmed with angiography. Signal characteristics of thrombosed cortical veins are similar to those described in dural sinus thrombosis.
