Main Article Content

Abstract

Cerebral venous thrombosis is a general term that describes thrombosis of the cerebral venous system, including thrombosis of the dural sinuses and deep cerebral veins as well as cortical veins. This is an uncommon form of stroke and presents a challenge for clinicians in diagnosing the disease. Several reports have indicated cerebral venous thrombosis as a direct complication of COVID-19 infection. We collect and report two cases of patients who had COVID-19 and cerebral venous thrombosis and review the literature on reported cases.
