Current status and problems of endovascular treatment for cerebral venous sinus thrombosis
Abstract
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a special type of stroke. At present, anticoagulant therapy is the main treatment, but the mortality rate is higher in severe patients with ineffective anticoagulant therapy, and endovascular treatment can improve the prognosis of these patients. However, there is a lack of large randomized controlled trials to verify the endovascular treatment of CVST currently, so the effectiveness and safety of endovascular treatment is questionable. This article is to analyze the current status and problems of endovascular treatment for CVST in recent years, in order to guide clinical practice.
