چکیده

Dural sinus malformation is an extremely rare congenital cerebrovascular malformation. We report serial antenatal sonographic findings in two patients with dural sinus malformation. Sonography can reveal dural sinus malformation at 24 weeks' gestation. Correct and early diagnosis may help determine the appropriate place, timing, and mode of delivery, which may result in a better therapeutic course and patient outcome.

Dural arteriovenous fistula on the convexity presenting with pure acute subdural hematoma.

Non-traumatic dural arteriovenous fistula/malformation (dural AVF/AVM) presenting with pure subdural hematoma (SDH) is relatively rare. We report on a male patient who showed pure acute SDH and was diagnosed as having dural AVF on the convexity near the superior sagittal sinus (SSS), based on angiographic findings. A 27-year-old man was admitted to our hospital due to headache with acute onset....

Malformations of the fetal dural sinuses.

BACKGROUND Dural sinus malformation (DSM) is a term used to describe congenital vascular malformations characterized by massive dilation of one or more dural sinuses: these dilatations are typically associated with arteriovenous shunts. Such malformations can present antenatally but their early natural history and anatomy is poorly defined. METHODS We reviewed five years of autopsy experience...

Dural arteriovenous fistula involving the superior sagittal sinus following sinus thrombosis--case report.

A 57-year-old woman presented with a dural arteriovenous fistula (AVF) involving the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) based upon serial radiological examinations. Her chief complaints were headache and vomiting. Cerebral angiography and magnetic resonance (MR) venography revealed the sinus thrombosis involving the SSS, the bilateral transverse sinuses (TSs), and the right sigmoid sinus. Her sympto...

Dural arteriovenous fistula after cerebral sinus thrombosis: a case study of serial venous transcranial color-coded sonography.

ural sinus thrombosis has been proposed as the primary event in the formation of a dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF).1–4 However, the temporal course of development of a DAVF after cerebral sinus thrombosis has rarely been shown clinically. Venous angiography is a sensitive method for evaluating sinus thrombosis.5 However, the invasiveness of venous angiography limits its value in the follow-u...

Surgical treatment of dural arteriovenous malformation in the region of the sigmoid sinus.

The dural arteriovenous malformation in the occipitomastoid region usually has multiple arterial tributaries from the internal and external carotid and vertebral arteries. They converge towards the proximal segment of the sigmoid sinus, where the arterial blood is shunted into the venous channel. Five cases of this malformation are described. In four of them attempts were made to eliminate the ...
