(A) Right occipital intracerebral hemorrhage is seen on initial head CT scan. (B) Anteroposterior view of initial 3D MRA shows venous flow occlusion at the final part of superior sagittal sinus (blue arrow) due to bilateral transverse sinus thrombosis extending to the right jugular vein. Left sigmoid sinus is filled by the vein of Labbé (white arrow). (C) Head contrast CT scan on follow-up demonstrates repletion defect in the posterior half of superior sagittal sinus (white star). MRA = MR angiogram.
