Follow-up of patients with venous sinus thrombosis and inner ear infection

This is a case report of a 57-year-old female patients with intense headache, followed by pain and neck stiffness, right ear otalgia and severe vomiting. Brain imaging (CT angiography, MR venography) showed thrombosis of the right transverse and sigmoid venous sinuses. On day 4 of hospitalization, the patient developed intracranial hemorrhage due to anticoagulant treatment or as a consequence of sinus venous thrombosis. After 10 days, the brain CT scan showed marginal recanalisation of the thrombosis. After one and a half years the brain CT scan showed a continuous filling defect related to chronic thrombotic content of the right sigmoid and transverse sinuses.
