Abstract
ICVT, infrequent and serious, has a varied aetiology and clinical presentation. Focal syndrome with seizures is common. CT showing cord sign is early and accurate. Rapid management promises good prognosis, evading criticality. Although prothrombotic states pose great risk, inflammatory diseases, rarely SSc, are equally important. They must be evaluated.
