- Abstract
- Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is quite rare and underlying risk factors are diverse. We describe that 60-year-old
man developed CVT after use of cyclosporine. He had suffered from leukocytoclastic vasculitis and urticarial vasculitis.
Initial MR venogram revealed thrombosis in superior sagittal sinus, right transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus with
multiple cortical and deep collateral veins. Anticoagulation was started and maintained for one year, then follow up MR
venogram was normal. We suggest that cyclosporine might increase a risk of CVT. Key Words: Cyclosporine, Cerebral venous thrombosis
