Decompressive surgery in cerebral venous sinus thrombosis due to vaccine‐induce...
Krzywicka, Katarzyna; de Sousa, Diana Aguiar; Cordonnier, Charlotte; Bode, Felix J.; Field, Thalia S.; Michalski, Dominik; Pelz, Johann; Skjelland, MonaBackground and purpose: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis due to vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (CVST-VITT) is an adverse drug reaction occurring after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination. CVST-VITT patients often present with large intracerebral haemorrhages and a high proportion undergoes decompressive surgery. Clinical characteristics, therapeutic manag...

Weller, Johannes; Krzywicka, Katarzyna; van de Munckhof, Anita; Dorn, Franziska; Althaus, Katharina; Bode, Felix J.; Bandettini di Poggio, MonicaIntroduction: There is little data on the role of endovascular treatment (EVT) of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) due to vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT). Here, we describe clinical characteristics and outcomes of CVST-VITT patients who were treated with EVT. Patients and methods: We report data from an international registry of patients who developed CVST within 28 days of SARS...

Krzywicka, Katarzyna; van de Munckhof, Anita; Zimmermann, Julian; Bode, Felix J.; Frisullo, Giovanni; Karapanayiotides, Theodoros; Pötzsch, BerndCerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is the most common and severe manifestation of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT), which is a rare side effect of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (Vaxzevria, AstraZeneca/Oxford). The absolute risk of VITT and VITT-related CVT is estimated at 20 and 8 per million first doses of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, respectively. So far, no definite VITT cases occurring a...

van de Munckhof, Anita; Lindgren, Erik; Kleinig, Timothy J.; Field, Thalia S.; Cordonnier, Charlotte; Krzywicka, Katarzyna; Poli, SvenBackground: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) due to vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) is a severe condition, with high in-hospital mortality rates. Here, we report clinical outcomes of patients with CVT-VITT after SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) vaccination who survived initial hospitalization. Methods: We used data from an international registry of patients ...
Management of cerebral venous thrombosis due to adenoviral COVID-19 vaccination
Scutelnic, Adrian; Krzywicka, Katarzyna; Mbroh, Joshua; van de Munckhof, Anita; van Kammen, Mayte Sánchez; de Sousa, Diana Aguiar; Lindgren, ErikObjective: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) caused by vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) is a rare adverse effect of adenovirus-based severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines. In March 2021, after autoimmune pathogenesis of VITT was discovered, treatment recommendations were developed. These comprised immunomodulation, non-heparin anticoagulants, and avoidance...
Acute symptomatic seizures in cerebral venous thrombosis
Lindgren, Erik; Silvis, Suzanne M.; Hiltunen, Sini; Heldner, Mirjam R.; Serrano, Fabiola; de Scisco, Michele; Zelano, Johan; Zuurbier, Susanna M.Objective: To identify characteristics, predictors, and outcomes of acute symptomatic seizures (ASS) in cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), we investigated 1,281 consecutive adult patients with CVT included from 12 hospitals within the International CVT Consortium. Methods: We defined ASS as any seizure between symptom onset and 7 days after diagnosis of CVT. We stratified ASS into prediagnosis and solely postdia...
