This study investigates risk factors, clinical characteristics, and prognosis based on two affected pediatric cases and a systematic literature review. Methods Retrospective analysis covered symptoms, laboratory and imaging findings, treatments, and outcomes during induction remission therapy. Results Both patients developed CVST about two weeks after the first PEG-Asp dose with seizures, normal platelets, low fibrinogen and antithrombin III, and MRI/MRV-confirmed thrombosis with hemorrhage.

This study aims to investigate its risk factors, clinical features, and prognosis.  \nMethods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, imaging characteristics, treatment, and outcomes of two pediatric ALL patients who developed CVST during induction remission therapy at our center. Additionally, a systematic literature review was conducted to contextualize our findings.  \nResults Both children were treated per the CCCG-ALL-2020 protocol and developed CVST approximately two weeks after the first PEG-Asp dose, presenting with generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Notably, platelet counts were normal at presentation. Coagulation tests primarily showed decreased fibrinogen (FIB) and antithrombin III (AT-III) . Head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance venography (MRV) confirmed venous sinus thrombosis with hemorrhage. Management included fresh frozen plasma and fibrinogen infusion, mannitol for intracranial pressure reduction, and rivaroxaban for anticoagulation. Both patients recovered without recurrence of thrombosis upon subsequent PEG-Asp exposure.  \nConclusion During ALL chemotherapy involving PEG-Asp, regular monitoring of coagulation parameters (especially FIB and AT-III) is crucial. Unexplained neurological symptoms should raise suspicion for CVST, warranting prompt MRI + MRV. Anticoagulation with rivaroxaban was effective in these cases, yielding favorable outcomes. CVST complicating the induction phase of ALL requires heightened clinical awareness for early prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.  \nKeywords Child, Acute lymphoblastic leukemia, Pegylated asparaginase, Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, Rivaroxaban  \n*Correspondence:  \nZhengbin Hu  \n[hu_zhengbin2021@126.com](hu_zhengbin2021@126.com)  \n1Department of Pharmacy, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Major Obstetric Diseases, Guangdong Provincial Clinical Research Center for Obstetrics and Gynecology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou 510150, China  \n2Department of Hematology and Oncology, Guangzhou Women and Children’s Medical Center, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou 510623, China  \n3Department of Radiology, Guangzhou Women and Children’s Medical Center, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou 510623, China 4Guangzhou City Rescue Management Station Downtown Branch, Guangzhou 510599, China  \n© The Author(s) 2025.
