Behcet's disease is a chronic, relapsing multisystem disorder, that may develop into variable neurological manifestations. They include vascular and parenchymal involvement. Vascular involvement is dominated by cerebral venous sinus thrombosis marked by benign intracranial hypertension. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis can present with all the classical criteria for idiopathic intracranial hypertension, including normal brain CT findings with normal CSF content. But brain MRI is a useful diagnostic method in this situation to confirm the presence of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. We experienced a case of raised intracranial pressure in a 21-year-old man, caused by cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. We disclosed his symptoms and signs thus fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for Behcet's disease.

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) can be a rare risk factor of cerebral venous thrombosis. We describe a case of isolated cortical vein thrombosis (CVT) secondary to SIH and discuss the value of susceptibility-weighted imaging for the detection of isolated CVT.

특발 두개내압상승은 특별한 기질적 원인 없이 두개 내압의 증가가 생기는 증후군으로 이 질환의 약 10%에서 두개내 정맥동의 혈전 형성이 생길 수 있다고 알려져 있다. 체중이 정상 범위이며 응고 장애가 없는 특발 두개내압상승 환자에게서 정맥동의 혈전 형성은 간과될 수 있다. 본 증례 보고에서는 특별한 위험인자가 없던 환자에게서 설하신경관의 신경 원성 종양으로 오인되었던 정맥동 혈전의 케이스를 소개하고, 두개 내압상승의 다양한 영상 소견에 대해 고찰하고자 한다.

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVT) is a rare cerebrovascular condition accounting for 0.5-1% of all types of strokes in the general population. Hyperthyroidism is associated with procoagulant and antifibrinolytic activity, thereby precipitating a hypercoagulable state that predisposes to CVT. We report the case of a 31-year-old Korean man with massive CVT and diagnosis of concomitant Graves' disease at admission. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment of CVT are important to improve prognosis; therefore, CVT should be considered in the differential diagnosis in all patients with hyperthyroidism presenting with neurological symptoms.

뇌정맥발달기형은 일반적으로 증상을 유발하지 않는 흔한 두개 내 혈관 기형이다. 뇌정맥발달기형과 관련된 출혈은 동반된 해면상 기형이 원인인 경우가 대부분인 것으로 알려져 있으며, 뇌정맥발달기형 내 혈전증이 뇌출혈을 일으킨 경우는 극히 드물게 보고되어 있다. 저자들은 혈전증을 유발할 수 있을 것으로 보이는 특이한 구조의 뇌정맥발달기형을 가진 환자에서 혈전증과 큰 뇌출혈이 생긴 1예를 경험하였기에 컴퓨터단층촬영 소견과 자기공명영상 소견을 보고하고자 한다.

A clinical study was carried out 1 case of ischemic cerebrovascular accident which occurred at puerperium in a 27 year-old woman followed by vaginal delivery The results were as follows: 1. In the clinical view, it was thought that the cause of this case is intracranial venous thrombus, because the symptom-headache, foaming at the mouse, acromyotonia, hemiparesis- occurred in the postpartum and functional outcome is good. 2. In this case, the patient's functional system of spleen-stomach is usually weak, and due to delivery the functional system of spleen-stomach is more insufficient. so it can not control damp-phlegm(濕痰). In addition, vital energy of liver stagnate.

b형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자균 예방접종이 시행된 이후 b형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자균에 의한 감염률은 급격히 감소하였으나, non-b형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자균에 의한 감염의 비율이 증가하는 추세이다. 대뇌 정맥동 혈전증은 드물지만 세균성 수막염의 합병증 중 하나로 발생할 수 있다. 대뇌 정맥동 혈전증이 동반된 f형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자균에 의한 뇌수막염 환자를 진단 및 치료하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

Transcranial Doppler(TCD) is an important diagnostic tool for evaluating the patients with stroke. It has some advantages and unique role when compared with other neuroimaging modalities. Recent development of transcranial color-coded Doppler(TCD) improves the limitation and pitfalls of TCD. The current indications of TCD are as follows: 1. Screening and evaluation of the intracranial major vessels 2. early detection and follow-up of vasospasm due to SAH 3. emboli detection (high-imtensity transient signals, HITs) 4. dignosis and follow-up of subclavian steal 5. evaluation of intracranial collaterals when the extracranial ICA has severe stenosis or occlusion 6. evaluation of cerebral perfusion pressure (intracranial pressure) 7. evaluation of arteriovenous malformation 8. diagnosis and follow-up of arterial dissenction 9. diagnosis and follow-up of venous sinus thrombosis (experimental).
