description Patients who were vaccinated against COVID-19 have experienced thrombosis-thrombocytopenia syndrome and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). It is important to be aware of this potential side effect of the vaccine and to be able to recognize early clinical symptoms and signs of CVST. In this paper, we present two cases of COVID-19 vaccination-related CVST. The patients who suffered headaches and seizures were found to have CVST, which was treated with anticoagulation.
