Definition
Is the presence of a blood clot in the dural venous sinuses, which drain blood from the brain
Pathophysiology
The veins of the brain, both the superficial veins and the deep venous system, empty into the dural venous sinuses, which carry blood back to the jugular vein and thence to the heart. In cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, blood clots usually form both in the veins of the brain and the venous sinuses.
