| Summary: | <p>Myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) are associated with vascular thrombosis. Common sites for thrombosis are large arteries; however, less commonly, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) has also been reported. It is rare to have CVST as an initial presentation of MPD.

Furthermore, we performed a literature review to evaluate the association of CVST with ET.</p><h2>Other Information</h2> <p> Published in: eNeurologicalSci<br> License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ensci.2022.100398" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ensci.2022.100398</a></p> |
