Purpose: To evaluate the effect of periocular filler injection on the incidence of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT). Case Report: A 41-year-old woman without a prior medical history experienced a severe headache and subsequent seizures following an eye filler injection. Diagnosis of CVT was confirmed through brain magnetic resonance venography (MRV), revealing thrombosis in the left transverse and upper sagittal sinuses. The patient was treated with intravenous heparin and oral warfarin, leading to improvement and discharge in good condition after 10 days of hospitalization.

Conclusion
