This study demonstrated a higher incidence of VST in severe TBI and strong associations with skull fractures, cerebral contusions, tSAH, raised ICP and surgical intervention. Management was inconsistent, with no difference in outcome with or without anticoagulation. Larger, prospective cohort studies are needed to better understand this condition and establish evidence-based guidelines.
