چکیده

A 53-year-old woman spontaneously incurred a right trigeminal artery-cavernous sinus fistula, manifested by an intracranial bruit and right sixth nerve palsy. This lesion was successfully managed by coil embolization via the transvenous and transarterial routes.

Persistent Trigeminal Artery with a Cerebellar Branch and Trigeminal-Cavernous Fistula from Ruptured Aneurysm: Transarterial Coil Embolization

common internal carotid artery (ICA) -basilar artery anastomosis with an incidence between 0.1% and 0.3% (1). Anomalous cerebellar artery originating from the PTA has rarely been reported (2, 3). Rarely when an aneurysm is combined and ruptures into the cavernous sinus, spontaneous trigeminal-cavernous fistula can develop, which is usually treated by transarterial detachable balloon embolizatio...

Treatment of traumatic trigeminal-cavernous fistula by coil embolization and compression of carotid artery.

We report a case of a traumatic cavernous fistula supplied by a persistent primitive trigeminal artery. The process of treatment was unique in this case. Fistula was subcompletely occluded by coiling from primitive trigeminal artery. Residual fistula was helped to form thrombosis by compression of the carotid artery with hand in the procedure. Long-term follow-up was satisfactory. Traumatic cav...

Transvenous embolisation of a carotid-trigeminal cavernous fistula.

A carotid cavernous fistula is an abnormal communication between the internal carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. Rarely, this communication is associated with a persistent primitive trigeminal artery, with or without a trigeminal artery aneurysm. We report a case of spontaneous carotid-trigeminal cavernous fistula in which the persistent trigeminal artery was shown only on vertebral artery...

Carotid cavernous fistula after percutaneous balloon compression for trigeminal neuralgia: Endovascular treatment with coils

BACKGROUND Percutaneous ganglyolysis treatment of trigeminal neuralgia is rarely associated with vascular complications, such as hematoma, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and stroke. Internal carotid artery injury may also occur after misguided needle placement, particularly far posteriorly or medially, resulting in carotid cavernous fistula. Anatomical variations of the foramen ovale can predispose t...

De novo development of a remote arteriovenous fistula following transarterial embolization of a carotid cavernous fistula: case report and review of the literature.

We report a case of a patient who developed a remote dural arteriovenous fistula involving the left sigmoid sinus 4 months after successful transarterial embolization of a carotid cavernous fistula. This rare occurrence has been reported after transvenous embolization, but this represents the first case, to our knowledge, after transarterial coil embolization. We present our findings along with...
