英文摘要 | ObjectiveData regarding diagnosis, management, and prognosis of patients with cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) from high altitude are limited. The aim of the present study is to identify the clinical features, risk factors, and outcomes of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) in Tibet.MethodsWe retrospectively included patients with a diagnosis of CVT consecutively admitted to Tibet Autonomous Region People's Hospital between July 2015, and September 2022. The risk factors, clinical and radiological presentations, treatment and outcomes were analyzed.ResultsA total of 38 patients with CVT were included in this study. The median age was 31 years, and females accounted for 63.2%. Patients of Tibetan nationality accounted for 71.1% (n = 27) and the median altitude of residence in Tibet was 3800 m (3657, 4054). Headache was the most common symptom (92.1%). The most common risk factors of CVT were infection in the past 4 weeks (34.2%) and pregnancy or puerperium (23.7%). Lateral sinus (transverse and/or sigmoid sinus) (68.4%) and superior sagittal sinus (55.3%) were the most commonly involved. The D-dimer increased in 31 patients (81.6%). All three patients who died in hospital and during follow-up had risk factor of recent infection. Favorable outcome at follow-up with a median length of 454 days (189, 1059) was observed in 85.3% of patients.ConclusionsCVT at high altitude is more common in young patients and women, with various clinical manifestations and risk factors. Recent infection is the most common risk factor and may increase the mortality of CVT at high altitude. The long-term prognosis of CVT at high altitude is favorable. |
