Abstract

Cerebral Venous sinus thrombosis is an uncommon entity, which is usually associated with thrombosis of the dural venous sinuses due to local and clotting mechanism abnormalities. CVT secondary to CSF rhinorrhea has been recorded in literature but the relationship is uncertain. Here we report a case of a 28yr old male with a past history of road traffic accident who presented with features suggestive of meningoencephalitis. He was diagnosed to have Cortical Venous Thrombosis, on further evaluation he was found to have CSF rhinorrhea.
