Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis Following COVID-19 and Otogenic Infection: A Diagnostic and Therapeutic Dilemma Followed by mRNA COVID-19 Vaccination.

IntroductionCerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare neurovascular emergency that has been observed following COVID-19 infection, as well as following the use of non-mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Case PresentationThe authors report a case of CVST in a 67-year-old woman, unvaccinated for COVID-19, who presented with acute otitis externa. It remains unclear whether the CVST was a following COVID-19 infection complication, otogenic CVST, or a combination of both. ConclusionThis case demonstrates the diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas in managing this patient's challenging anticoagulation and antibiotic duration, as well as subsequent COVID-19 vaccination recommendations.
