Danang Cerebral Venous Thrombosis Registry

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening type of stroke, predominantly affecting young adults and women. Although prompt diagnosis and anticoagulant therapy can lead to favorable outcomes, data regarding the clinical spectrum, neuroimaging patterns, risk factors, and long-term functional recovery of CVT patients in central Vietnam remain limited. This prospective observational study aims to establish a hospital-based registry to investigate the clinical characteristics, neuroimaging features, etiology, and treatment outcomes of patients diagnosed with cerebral venous thrombosis at Danang Hospital. All consecutive patients with confirmed CVT admitted to Danang Hospital are enrolled and managed according to standard clinical protocols. Participants are monitored throughout their hospital stay to assess acute manifestations, imaging abnormalities on computed tomography (CT), computed tomography venography (CTV), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or magnetic resonance venography (MRV), and inpatient complications. Functional outcomes and recovery are evaluated at hospital discharge and during follow-up using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS).
