Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is the presence of acute thrombosis (a blood clot) in the dural venous sinuses, which drain blood from the brain. Symptoms may include headache, abnormal vision, any of the symptoms of stroke such as weakness of the face and limbs on one side of the body, and seizures.
When a cut or injury occurs, the body stops the bleeding by forming a blood clot. However, the blood shouldn't clot when it's just moving through the body.
