Possibilities of transcranial color-coded sonography in pathology of deep brain veins in children

A study in children with headaches associated mainly with venous hemodynamic disturbances has been performed. The role of cerebral venous disturbances has been defined in children with structural cerebral abnormalities: craniovertebral junction anomalies (Chiari abnormalities I) and hypoplasia of cerebral venous sinuses. Disturbances of cerebral hemodynamics revealed by ultrasonic methods determine the management of patients with different cerebral venous abnormalities.
