Cerebral venous thrombosis in pediatric patient has a varied etiology. The authors present the case of a teenager who, since the debut of SARS-CoV-2 infection, has accused intermittent right side hemicrania, which has become persistent in association with nausea and vomiting since the 5th day of quarantine. She was hospitalized in the 9th day since the debut. Neuroimaging revealed extended venous cerebral thrombosis affecting the right sigmoid sinus, the transverse sinus bilaterally, the confluence of the transverse sinuses and the right internal jugular vein. The evolution was favorable under anticoagulant and symptomatic treatment. Laboratory tests excluded other etiological causes for the cerebral venous thrombosis, thus the authors consider that cerebral thrombosis is a possible complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection in teenagers.
