Abstract

In patients with inherited bleeding disorders, thrombus development poses a challenge in balancing the management of thrombosis and bleeding. Pediatric antithrombotic therapy guidelines do not address the treatment of a thrombus in the setting of a bleeding disorder. We present a case series of four children with inherited bleeding disorders presenting with cerebral sinus venous thrombosis and bleeding, in order to summarize the different therapeutic approaches and outcomes of these patients.
