Description
Summary:<p>Cerebral venous system diseases include cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), venous sinus stenosis, carotid cavernous fistula (CCF), intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and so on. In recent years, due to the rapid development of neuroimaging and interventional technology, more and more cerebral venous system diseases have been timely diagnosed and treated, such as magnetic resonance black-blood thrombus imaging (MRBTI) in the diagnosis of CVT, stenting in the treatment of venous sinus stenosis, micro coil plus Onyx glue or covered stents in the treatment of CCF, which allow us to make a deeper recognition of cerebral venous system diseases. Therefore, this paper will introduce the latest diagnosis and treatment of cerebral venous system diseases.</p><p> </p><p><strong>DOI: </strong>10.3969/j.issn.1672-6731.2016.11.006</p>
