Significance Statement This case report demonstrates a novel approach to treating a rare indirect carotid cavernous fistula (CCF) and associated abducens palsy. Although endovascular treatment is the standard of care in the management of CCFs, it was contraindicated in this patient. Instead, she underwent an endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) with decompression of the medial orbital apex, including the cavernous sinus and optic nerve, with complete resolution of headache, lateral gaze palsy, and diplopia within 2 months.

In this case report, we present a patient with Type B dural carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF), who had failed cannulation via the transfemoral route and subsequently underwent CCF occlusion via the anterior orbital approach through the superior ophthalmic vein (SOV). Successful occlusion of CCF was achieved, with excellent visual and cosmetic outcomes postoperatively. When all venous routes have been exhausted, the SOV approach is an excellent and viable alternative in the treatment of dural CCFs. Close cooperation between the orbital and neuro-interventional teams in a hybrid operating theatre setting is essential in ensuring success of the operation.
