Hospital frequency was 7 per 100 000 patients, and the relative frequency against arterial strokes was 1:62.5. Nineteen cases (47%) had a clinical picture of pseudotumor cerebri. Behc\u0327et\u2019s disease was the cause in 10 cases (25%). Other causes included antiphospholipid antibodies in 4, protein S deficiency in 3, intracranial tumors in 3, systemic lupus erythematosus in 3, infections in 3, antithrombin III deficiency in 2, postpartum in 1, and oral contraceptives in 1.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\n            Cerebral venous thrombosis in adults is not uncommon in Saudi Arabia. Behc\u0327et\u2019s disease is the single most common etiology. Infection is no longer an important cause, whereas \u201cnew\u201d coagulation disorders are common. Patients with a pseudotumor cerebri syndrome should undergo angiography or brain MRI before being labeled idiopathic.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1161\/01.str.26.7.1193","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,6,17]],"date-time":"2011-06-17T20:08:03Z","timestamp":1308341283000},"page":"1193-1195","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":160,"title":["Cerebral Venous Thrombosis in Adults"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Abdulkader","family":"Daif","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Division of Neurology (A.D., S.Al-R., M.A., A.R.
