Angioarchitectural Evolution of Clival Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas in Two Patients
Dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) may present in a variety of ways, including as carotid-cavernous sinus fistulas. The ophthalmologic sequelae of carotid-cavernous sinus fistulas are known and recognizable, but less commonly seen is the rare clival fistula. Clival dAVFs may have a variety of potential anatomical configurations but are defined by the involvement of the venous plexus just over...

The feeding arteries from the left external carotid artery were embolized. Her symptoms were relieved for a while but soon recurred . On May 2, she was referred to us for treatment.

متن کاملClues to dural arteriovenous fistulas in patients with progressive dementia.
The mode of presentation of cranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) is dictated by the pattern of venous drainage. Lesions without demonstrable cortical venous reflux (CVR) have an indolent natural history. Alternatively, the presence of CVR defines aggressive lesions that mandate early diagnosis and definitive intervention (either surgical or endovascular).1 Indeed, it has been previously...
