Abstract : Cerebral venous thrombosis is a rare condition and represents a neurological emergency. It is a particular subtype of stroke, characterized by a huge diversity of neurological symptoms. Due to the diversity of its potential clinical presentations, medical imaging plays an important role in its early detection, even on non-dedicated examinations often performed in search of another acute neurological pathology. The aim of this case report is to illustrate the different radiological signs of cerebral venous thrombosis and to discuss the difficulties in diagnosing it by imaging at the acute stage.
