Cerebral cortical vein thrombosis (CCVT) is a rare type of cerebral venous thrombosis, which is frequently combined with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). We aimed to compare the difference of clinical features between the isolated and the combined subtypes of CCVT. A literature search was conducted utilizing the PubMed Central and EMBASE databases to identify studies up to Dec 2019. Clinical manifestations, presumable risk factors, imaging modalities, radiological findings, treatment, and prognosis in patients with CCVT were recorded. 335 publications were identified (n = 325, 141 males and 184 females, mean age 40.24 ± 16.26 years). Headaches (46.8%), motor/sensory disorders (43.3%), and seizures (42.5%) were commonly seen. Pregnancy/postpartum (n = 29), oral contraception use (n = 15), fertility drug use (n = 4) ranked the top three comorbidities of CCVT in female patients, while for general populations, thrombophilia, invasive interventions in the cerebrospinal system, as well as malignancy, would be the common risk factors. MRV and DSA were more likely to confirm diagnosis. More than 30% of CCVT presented brain lesions, including infarction (6.5%) and hemorrhage (24.0%). Isolated CCVT was prone to develop hemorrhagic infarction while combined CCVT was more likely to have ischemic lesions. More than 90% of the patients acquired good outcomes at discharge or short-term follow-up (within one year). There is a difference between Isolated CCVT and CCVT combined CVST on the sites and types of brain lesions. MRV and DSA may contribute to the final diagnosis. Most patients acquired complete or partial recovery of clinical symptoms or imaging presentations after long-term anticoagulation (3–6 months).
