Anatomic Information

In the embryo, the primary head sinus (PHS) is the first venous drainage channel in the craniocervical region. During embryonic development, this channel regresses and usually disappears completely; accordingly, a remnant of the PHS is an extremely rare condition and has been described in only a few previous studies. Here, we report a case of remnant of the PHS with a dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) in an adult. The remnant of the PHS had penetrated the petrous bone to run from the middle fossa to the jugular bulb and served as a drain for the middle fossa dAVF. We used digital subtraction angiography and reconstructed cone-beam computed tomography in 3D rotational angiography to obtain detailed anatomic information about the remnant PHS and additionally scrutinised and discussed its features.

A 71-year-old woman presented with headache and dilated vessels on CTA. Angiography demonstrated a complex dural arteriovenous fistula with retrograde cortical venous hypertension, supplied by branches of internal and external carotids bilaterally into a fistulous pouch paralleling the left transverse and sigmoid sinuses, which was occluded at the jugular bulb. The patient refused treatment and was lost to follow-up, returning with sudden confusion and hemianopsia from left temporo-occipital hemorrhage. Transvenous endovascular embolization was performed using the dual-microcatheter technique with a combination of coiling and Onyx copolymer, completely occluding the sinus and fistula while preserving normal venous drainage.The video can be found here: http://youtu.be/u_4Oc7tSmDM.

A rare case of dural sinus malformation with dural arteriovenous fistula in an infant is presented. Presenting symptom was progressive macrocrania without hydrocephalus. A high flow arteriovenous of the sigmoid sinus associated with jugular bulb diaphragm was demonstrated. Reflux in the intracranial sinus was present. The shunt was successfully occluded by transarterial embolization. The natural history and treatment strategy are discussed.

Glomus Tympanicum

Significance Statement Pulsatile tinnitus with erythematous tympanic membrane mass suggests vascular pathologies such as dural arteriovenous fistula, glomus tympanicum, or aberrant carotid artery. Jugular bulb aneurysmatic diverticulum is rare but should be suspected in a case with the presence of aneurysm in other organs. An imaging study is mandatory to confirm the diagnosis. Patient must avoid digging ear as it can cause profuse bleeding. Treatment option can be open surgery or endovascular treatment.

Anterior Condylar Vein

Anterior condylar confluence (ACC) dural arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a rare anomaly. We describe two cases of ACC dural AVF involving the anterior condylar vein that were successfully treated with selective transvenous coil embolization. The first patient presented with headache and right pulse-synchronous tinnitus, and demonstrated abnormal flow medial to the jugular bulb within the right hypoglossal canal on source image of magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). Arterioangiography disclosed a dural AVF in this area, supplied mainly by the meningeal branches of the bilateral ascending pharyngeal artery. We diagnosed ACC dural AVF involving the anterior condylar vein and transvenous embolization was successfully performed. The second patient presented with right pulse-synchronous tinnitus. Views of source image of MRA and arterioangiography were similar to the first case and, again, transvenous embolization was successfully performed. ACC dural AVF is a rare condition and knowledge of the anatomy of the venous system around the craniocervical junction is required for successful treatment.
