Abstract

Central venous sinus thrombosis (CSVT) in neonates,infants, and children is often multifactorial in etiology, with a predisposing comorbid condition or infirmity identified in up to 95% of those affected. These conditions include common childhood illnesses such as fever, infection, dehydration, and anemia, as well as acute and chronic medical conditions such as congenital heart disease, nephrotic syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus and malignancy. Attention deficit hyperkinetic disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurobehavioral disorder of childhood with an incidence of 5% in school children. It is characterized by inattention, poor impulse control, motor overactivity and restlessness. We report a case of a 2.5 year old female child with diffuse cerebral atrophy, hypoplstic carpus callosum with central sinus venous thrombosis, ADHD and ventricular septal defect posted for sqint surgery of both eyes under general anaesthesia.
