ABSTRACT=<p>Anticoagulation with heparin is the current mainstay treatment for Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST). Endovascular treatment is increasingly being used to treat patients with CVST who are non-responsive to anticoagulation. These more aggressive interventions include catheter-based local chemical thrombolysis, balloon angioplasty and mechanical thrombectomy with uncertain safety and efficacy. Here we describe the first reported clinical experience using the INARI FlowTriever system to treat a patient presented with focal weakness and found to have diffuse CVST.</p>
