Cerebral Venous Thrombosis (CVT) is a multifactorial condition which is described as idiopathic in 12.5% of patients.

description Cerebral Venous Thrombosis (CVT) is a multifactorial condition which is described as idiopathic in 12.5% of patients. Hyperthyroidism has been associated with CVT in many case reports, and increased levels of factor VIII and von Willebrand factor (vWF) have been proposed as the possible link in this association, but only few rare case reports have described an association of hypothyroidism with CVT. We report here a case of autoimmune thyroiditis presenting with CVT.
