Central nervous system infection especially pyogenic results in cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) although associated with infarctions but there is no comprehensive study evaluating the role of CVST contributing in infarction. ⋯ In TBM, infarction occurs in 50% patients, and is of arterial in origin. Cerebral venous system is usually spared in TBM.
