A limited number of studies have reported cerebral venous sinus thrombosis accompanied by heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. Here, we present a case of successful endovascular therapy (EVT) A total of 130 obstetrical patients were treated with either low molecular weight (LMW) or unfractionated (UFH) heparin as part of prospective study comparing their efficacy in the prevention of thromboembolism. A single daily dose of 2500-5000 anti-Xa-units LMW heparin (Fragmin) or two to three
