Popis: Abstract Objectives To investigate the risk factors and underlying causes of pregnancy-related cerebral venous thrombosis (PCVT). Methods A retrospective cohort of 16 patients diagnosed with CVT during pregnancy and postpartum (within six weeks after delivery) in a comprehensive hospital in China between 2009 and 2022 were carefully reviewed, focusing on demographic, clinical, and etiological characteristics, especially underlying causes. We matched 16 PCVT patients with 64 pregnant and puerperal women without PCVT to explore risk factors and clinical susceptibility to PCVT. Results PCVT occurred commonly during the first trimester (43.75%) and the puerperium (37.5%). The frequency of anemia, thrombocytosis and thrombocytopenia during pregnancy, dehydration, and pre-pregnancy anemia was significantly higher in women with PCVT than in those without PCVT (P A (p. Met406Ile), heterozygous PROS1 c.301C > T (p. Arg101Cys), composite heterozygous mutation in the F8 gene (c.144-1259C > T; c.6724G > A (p. Val2242Met)) and homozygous MTHFR c.677C > T (p. Ala222Val). Conclusions The occurrence of anemia, thrombocytopenia and thrombocytosis during pregnancy, dehydration and pre-pregnancy anemia suggested a greater susceptibility to PCVT. For confirmed PCVT patients, autoimmune diseases, hereditary thrombophilia, and hematological disorders were common causes. Screening for potential etiologies should be paid more attention, as it has implications for treatment and long-term management.
