Trigeminal-cavernous fistula: Saltzman anatomy revisited.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a case of a carotid-cavernous fistula through a persistent trigeminal artery with endovascular treatment, and discuss the Saltzman classification of persistent trigeminal artery anatomy and its importance in treatment of this lesion.

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...
متن کاملTreatment 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...
متن کاملDiagnosis and management of trigemino-cavernous fistulas: case reports and review of the literature.
Although usually asymptomatic, a persistent trigeminal artery (PTA) can rarely be associated with a direct fistula to the cavernous sinus (ie, trigemino-cavernous fistula). We present three patients with trigemino-cavernous fistulas; two were subsequently treated using modern endovascular techniques while the third initially declined therapy. We then review the literature of reported cases of t...
متن کاملTreatment of carotid cavernous fistulae or cavernous aneurysms associated with a persistent trigeminal artery: report of three cases.
One case of traumatic carotid cavernous fistula and two cases of cavernous aneurysm associated with a persistent trigeminal artery are reported. Since a significant rate of infarctions or hemorrhages in the vertebrobasilar territory is associated with PTA, we prefer to permanently occlude the PTA during treatment of a carotid cavernous fistula or a cavernous aneurysm if the trigeminal artery ca...
متن کاملCarotid 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...
