Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is an uncommon stroke that has a varied clinical profile. Quite often, speech language pathologists limit the assessment of these patients to a language assessment alone. Subsequently, it is possible that they may miss out certain relevant information which can aid them in their intervention. The aim of the current study was to highlight the relevance of adopting a test battery approach to assess a patient diagnosed with CVST. Here, we present a test battery approach to assess a 43-year-old patient who reported to us after CVST. The test battery included various formal and informal measures. Apart from the routine measures, an additional test for assessing the cognitive linguistic profile was included in the battery which yielded us significant information regarding the patient. Thus, we concluded that speech language pathologists should follow a test battery approach to get a clear idea about the clinical profile of the patient, to avoid misdiagnosis, and also to provide suitable intervention.
