RESUMEN
La trombosis venosa cerebral es una enfermedad poco frecuente, pero de pronóstico potencialmente grave. Debido a los cambios hemostáticos durante la gestación, es una patología que puede asociarse al embarazo. Presenta un amplio rango de signos y síntomas. El diagnóstico y tratamiento precoz mejoran el pronóstico. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 30 años, que en la semana 8 de gestación acude a Urgencias por cefalea intensa y cuya resonancia magnética reveló una trombosis venosa cerebral. La paciente presentó un segundo episodio en la semana 33, a pesar del correcto tratamiento anticoagulante recibido.
ABSTRACT
Cerebral venous thrombosis is a rare disease, but with a potentially serious prognosis. It is a condition that can be associated with pregnancy because of the hemostatic changes during gestation. It has a wide range of signs and symptoms. Early diagnosis and treatment improve prognosis. We report the case of a 30-year-old woman, at week 8 of pregnancy, who came to the emergency department for severe headache and whose magnetic resonance imaging revealed a cerebral venous thrombosis. The patient had a second episode at week 33, despite correct anticoagulation received.
