A 67-year-old man with a history of prostatic hypertrophy developed behavioral anomalies and a fever. At admission, diffusion-weighted brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) indicated a high-intensity signal lesion on both sides of the cerebral hemisphere. Immediately after hospitalization, he developed paralysis of the left side of the body. Diffusion-weighted MRI indicated hemorrhagic changes in the right and left parietal lobes and right occipital lobe. Magnetic resonance venography indicated superior sagittal sinus occlusion. The blood test results indicated transient eosinophilia. Cases of thrombosis with idiopathic eosinophilia have been reported, but this is the first known case of cerebral sinus thrombosis with transient eosinophilic leukocytosis.
