In our population-based study, the background incidence of CVST with associated TTS was very low, and the sole clinically severe case with multiorgan thrombosis occurred following a rotaviral precipitant. Our study establishes a benchmark against which to measure future potential 'TTS' clusters and suggests that viruses other than adenovirus may trigger this syndrome.
