Direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are being increasingly integrated into routine care but are not yet recommended by guidelines. Recent randomized clinical trials and available case series offer reassuring safety data. Routine use of endovascular therapy is not associated with improved outcomes. The relationship between recanalization and prognosis is uncertain. The evidence base for management of CVT continues to improve. Ongoing areas of uncertainty include duration of therapy and whether certain subgroups of patients may benefit from neurointervention or personalized approaches to antithrombotic strategy. The state of knowledge will continue to benefit from large collaborative international efforts, and integration of patient partnerships to identify research priorities.
