Treatment of traumatic trigeminal-cavernous fistula by coil embolization and compression of carotid artery.
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 cavernous fistula supplied by a persistent primitive trigeminal artery could be treated by embolization and temporal compression of the parent artery might be useful for residual minimal fistula.

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...

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...

Direct carotid cavernous fistulas (dCCFs) represent different entitles from spontaneous cavernous sinus (CS) dural arteriovenous fistulas (CSAVFs). Traumatic dCCFs are direct arteriovenous communications between the internal carotid artery (ICA) and cavernous sinus, resulting from a traumatic tear of the horizontal or posterior ascending intracavernous segment of the ICA by skull fracture fragm...

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.
متن کاملTransvenous 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...
