The physical examination is often poor and ready for confusion with many other affections. The diagnosis of certainty can only be neuroradiological. MRI is currently the reference method; it allows the visualization of venous thrombus and the monitoring of its evolution. The treatment of these TPC is mainly medical based on anticoagulants.
