Summary
The main diagnostic signs of cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis were demonstrated. It was especially stressed that variations of sinuses may result in angiographic non-visualization rarely of the right transverse sinus (3.3 %) and more often (14 %) in the left transverse sinus. This must not be mistaken as thrombosis. Similar care is necessary in judging the cavernous sinus in angiography and the superior sagittal sinus which might be replaced in its whole frontal section by large parasagittal veins.
