A 35‑year‑old female was admitted with chief complaints of increased frequency of bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss for 2 months. The patient was diagnosed to have ulcerative colitis after sigmoidoscopy and biopsy and she was started on treatment. Two days later, the patient developed headache and seizures. Magnetic resonance imaging of brain showed cerebral venous thrombosis with venous infarcts. A high index of clinical suspicion is needed to diagnose this uncommon condition so that appropriate treatment can be initiated. }, volume = 4, journal = {Journal of Neurosciences in Rural Practice}, issn = {0976-3147}, issn = {0976-3155}, url = {https://doi.org/10.4103/0976-3147.105629}, doi = {10.4103/0976-3147.105629} }
