Behçet’s disease as a causative factor of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis: subgroup analysis of data from the VENOST study

Abstract

BD was found in 9.4% of patients in our VENOST series. Patients with BD were younger and showed a male predominance. The functional outcome of CVST in patients with BD was good; only 12% of patients presenting with cranial nerve involvement and altered consciousness at the beginning had a poor outcome (modified Rankin Score ⩾2).
