Cerebral Venous Thrombosis Mimicking a Discrete Brain Mass: A Case Report and Literature Review

Figure 2

Axial FLAIR (a) representative image demonstrates large area of FLAIR hyperintensity involving the left frontoparietal region representing edema with mass effect, new/significantly increased compared to the prior study. There is associated restricted diffusion (as evidenced by DWI hyperintensity (b) and ADC hypointensity (c)) compatible with evolving acute infarct.
