Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula successfully treated by combined open-endovascular procedure.
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas constitute a rare though potentially devastating disease. Because the arterial (high-pressure) blood flow drains directly into the low-pressure venous system, there is a high risk of bleeding and associated neurological deficit. The classifications by Borden and Cognard underline the correlation between bleeding risk and venous drainage pattern of the f...
متن کاملDural Arteriovenous Fistula Treated by Combined Surgical/Endovascular Approach
Dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) are unusual vascular lesions that may form because of trauma or sinus thrombosis, but are idiopathic in most cases [1]. Connections between the dural artery and the cortical veins result in the veins being exposed to high pressures, leading to venous hypertension and subarachnoid hemorrhage [2]. Patients may present with pulsatile tinnitus (or pulse-synchron...
متن کاملDural Arteriovenous Fistula Manifested as Rapid Progressive Dementia Successfully Treated by Endovascular Embolization Only
A 43-year-old male presented with daytime sleepiness at work and indifferent behavior like never before. Two weeks prior to hospital admission, he had episodic memory loss with well preserved remote memory. Brain MRI showed a dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) in the right lateral transverse sinus with a bilateral thalamic venous infarction. Cerebral angiography confirmed a right transverse sig...
متن کاملIntracranial dural arteriovenous fistula with perimedullary drainage treated by endovascular embolization.
A 66-year-old woman presenting progressive tetraparesis during the past month. Magnetic resonance (MR) showed nonspecific abnormalities in the cervical spinal cord (Figure 1), which could be related to demyelination, neoplasia or inflammation1. However, these findings, in concomitance with extensive dilated perimedullary vessels, suggested myelopathy secondary to dural arteriovenous fistula (DA...
متن کاملMultiple intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula
Dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) is also known as dural arteriovenous malformation. Two forms of DAVF have been introduced, however, here we present an exceptional case of DAVF with unique origin and drainage. In this study, we present a rare case of multiple DAVFs in a 50 year old man with right parietal intraparenchymal hemorrhage. MRI showed two round right parieto-occipital masses with fl...
