Journal Title: Applied Physiology and Anatomy Digest - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Introduction: The recent introduction of noninvasive and highly sensitive diagnostic techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and computed tomography angiography (CTA) has modified our knowledge of the spectrum of illness associated with CVT. Methodology: The study was carried out at a Padmashree Dr.D.Y.Patil Medical College Pimpri Pune . The study spanned over a period from June 2009 to September 2011.

Conclusion: The risk of thrombosis increase in pregnancy and puerperium due to hypercoagulable state (as a result of increase in fibrinogen level, platelet count and platelet adhesiveness), venous stasis . (due to loss of venous tone) and other factors (pelvis infection, anemia, septicemia of pregnancy, dehydration.
