A study conducted by the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center explores the use of endovascular therapy (EVT) for the treatment of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST), a rare form of stroke that primarily affects young females, especially during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The study found that EVT for CVST was associated with improved clinical outcomes and an acceptable safety profile in severe cases. However, the researchers noted a lack of evidence from large randomized clinical trials, indicating the need for more prospective studies to confirm these results. [Extracted from the article] |
