Prospectively patients were recruited from December 2018. We analyzed predictors of seizures and associated good functional outcomes (modified Rankin Scale, mRS: 0\u20132) using multivariable logistic regression.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We enrolled 153 patients with CVT in which 77 (50%) had presented with a seizure. The median age was 31 years (IQR 16-46), and the majority were men (73.2%). Focal to bilateral tonic-clonic was the most common seizure type (27%), followed by generalized seizures (22%). None of the patients had status epilepticus. Antiseizure medications (ASM) were used in 71% of patients at diagnosis, 42% having received them prophylactically. Supratentorial parenchymal involvement was seen in 72% of seizure patients compared to 38% in those without, and superior sagittal sinus was most commonly involved. Percentage of patients who achieved good clinical outcome (mRS 0-2) at 3 months did not vary significantly between both groups. The only predictor for seizures with CVT was the presence of a parenchymal lesion (OR-3.75, 95% CI 1.79-7.85), whereas seizure occurrence (OR- 12.55, 95% CI- 1.53-102.59) was associated with statistically significant risk for recurrent seizures, by multiple logistic regression analysis. Seizure occurrence was not associated with adverse functional outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Seizures at presentation occurred in 50% of patients with CVT which was associated with a parenchymal lesion in the brain.
