Computed tomography (CT) on admission showed left thalamic hemorrhage and ventricular hemorrhage with acute hydrocephalus (Fig. 1a). Bilateral choroid plexus enlargement and subcortical calcification in the right temporo-occipital lobe were also detected (Fig. 1b).
a Gadolinium-enhanced MRI showing left thalamic hemorrhage, leptomeningeal enhancement in the right temporo-occipital lobe, and choroid plexus thickening and enhancement on both sides. b Magnetic resonance venography (right to left view) showing steno-occlusion of the superior sagittal sinus (white arrow), straight sinus (red arrows), and left internal cerebral vein (red arrow head). c Three-dimensional CT angiography 2 weeks after the onset (right to left view) showing the patency of the straight sinus (white arrow) and left internal cerebral vein (red arrow head) and calcification in the right occipital lobe (red arrow)

Fig2
MRI showed left thalamic hemorrhage, leptomeningeal enhancement in the right temporo-occipital lobe, and choroid plexus thickening with enhancement on both sides (Fig. 2a). Magnetic resonance venography showed steno-occlusion of the straight sinus, left internal cerebral vein (ICV), and superior sagittal sinus (SSS) (Fig. 2b). Two weeks after the onset, three-dimensional CT angiography revealed the patency of the straight sinus, left ICV, and SSS (Fig. 2c).
