Summary Cerebral venous thrombosis (TSVC) is a type of stroke (CVA) involving the venous side of the cerebral circulation, including thrombosis of the dural venous sinuses and / or cortical and deep veins of the brain, is a rare cause 0.5-1% of all strokes, with an estimated range between 0. 22 to 1.23 / 100,000 / year prevalence. Risk factors for TSVC, are generally divided into acquired risks (eg, surgery, trauma, pregnancy, postpartum, antiphospholipid syndrome, cancer, exogenous hormones) and genetic risks (hereditary thrombophilia). The most widely studied factors TSVC risk include prothrombotic states, inherited thrombophilia associated with deficiencies TSVC include antithrombin, protein C, protein S (PS), mutation of factor V Leiden mutation and prothrombin 20210 gene. The prevalence of PS deficit ranges between 0.02 and 0.03% in the general population and increases up to 2% in unselected patients with thrombosis. With close to 9% mortality. The operation is usually doctor. It cites the case of a 28-year-old, with clinical symptoms of headache 1 month of evolution with neuroimaging findings transverse sinus thrombosis and left sigmoid with protein S deficiency.
