This will lead to intracranial hypertension, cerebral ischemia or wide spreading hemorrhage which may result in a permanent neurologic deficit [16] or mortality. [14] This disease has an incidence rate of between 2.6 and 2.69 in every 100,000 babies per year. [17] However, mortality due to neonatal cerebral sinovenous ischemic stroke is rather ...
