Abstract
Isolated cortical vein thrombosis (ICoVT) is very rare and its clinical symptoms lack specificity. Unlike cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, ICoVT rarely presents increased intracranial pressure and optic disc edema. Imaging examination, especially MRI examination, is very important for the diagnosis of this disease. T2*-weighted gradient echo sequence and susceptibility-weighted imaging contribute to the early diagnosis of the disease. This article reviews the clinical symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of ICoVT. Key words: Venous thrombosis; Intracranial thrombosis; Cerebral cortex; Neuroimaging; Magnetic resonance imaging; Risk factors
