Hemorrhage in sinus vein thrombosis: the "cashew sign"
Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhages are quite common in sinus vein thrombosis (SVT). The morphology of these hemorrhages may vary from small localized juxtacortical lesions and subarachnoid hemorrhages to large hemorrhagic infarcts (Coutinho, van den Berg et al. 2014). In this presentation, we aimed to emphasize venous hemorrhage and the "cashew sign" seen in SVT.

Keywords : Sinus vein thrombosis, cashew sign, hemorrhage
