Abstract

Headache, papilledema, focal neurologic deficits, epileptic seizures, mental status changes, is seen frequently during the course of venous sinus thrombosis. The most common underlying causes of venous sinus thrombosis are pregnancy, postpartum states and abortus. We are presenting a 23 years-old female patient admitted to our hospital with headache and epileptic seizures. In the near past she had a medical abortion during the 6th month of her pregnancy because of intrauterin fetal exitus. On her neurologic examination she had ++ stiff neck, mental status change, bilateral papilledema, bilateral weak light reflexes, bilateral weakness of outward gaze and right central facial paralysis. She was prediagnosed as intracranial tumour or cerebral abscess but her MRI and cerebral angiography was in accordance with pansinus venous thrombosis. She was treated with asetazolomid, and at the same time repeated lumber punctures and were done and sufficient amount of CSF was drained. Because her symptoms were subsided she was not anticoagulated. Headache, papilledema, epileptic seizures during pregnancy and postpartum states should remind us as the underlying cause may be venous sinus thrombosis.

Özet

Sinüs ven trombozunda başağrısı, papil ödem, fokal belirtiler, epilepsi ve bilinç değişiklikleri başlıca klinik bulgulardır. Predispozisyon yaratan etyolojik faktörler enfektif ve nonenfektif nedenler olarak ayrılır. Gebelik, pueperium ve abortus nonenfektif nedenlerdendir. Gebeliğin 6.ayında intrauterin exitus sonrasında başağrısı ve epilepsi gelişen, nörolojik muayenesinde ++ ense sertliği, bilinç bulanıklığı, bilateral papil ödem, iki taraflı zayıf ışık refleksi ve yana bakış kısıtlılığı, sağ santral fasial paralizi tesbit edilen 23 yaşında bir bayan vaka sunmaktayız. CT' de tümör veya abse tanıları düşünülmüşken MRI ve serebral anjiografide pansinüs ven trombozuna ait bulgular gösterilmiştir. Vaka asetozolamid ve boşaltıcı lomber ponksiyon ile tedavi edilmiştir. Tedavi sonrasında klinik bulgularda düzelme elde edilmiş ve bunun üzerine antikoagülasyon planlanmamıştır. Gebelik ve pueperium döneminde ortaya çıkan başağrısı, papil ödem ve epilepsinin venöz sinüs trombozu olasılığını düşündürmesi gerekmektedir.
