摘要
Amongst the various systemic complications of ulcerative colitis,cerebral venous thrombosis(CVT)is an uncommon and serious neurological complication mainly associated during episodes of relapse of ulcerative colitis.CVT is suspected to be a consequence of hypercoagulable state occurring during the disease in genetic predisposed persons.Most patients present with rapid neurological deterioration.This devastating intracranial complication requires immediate medical intervention to avoid potentially life threatening consequences.The outcome is good,provided the disease is diagnosed on time and the treatment is started early.The authors present a patient of CVT,a rare complication seen during relapse of ulcerative colitis.
