چکیده

Arterialized blood flow in the cavernous sinus may result from carotid-cavernous fistula or dural venous fistula. We encountered an unusual case of arterialized blood flow in the cavernous sinus on MR angiography resulting from arterialized retrograde venous flow in the internal jugular vein. This abnormal flow originated from an upper extremity dialysis arteriovenous fistula in the presence of central venous occlusion. The patient's symptoms of visual disturbance resolved after the central venous occlusion was treated with stent placement.

Choroidal detachment and dural carotid-cavernous sinus fistula--case report.

A 71-year-old female presented with the rare complication of choroidal detachment after endovascular treatment of a dural carotid-cavernous sinus fistula. Since the residual arteriovenous shunt flow was minimal and intraocular pressure was normal, the choroidal detachment was treated conservatively and disappeared within one month. The possibility of choroidal detachment during the clinical cou...
