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.

AbstractOncogenic osteomalacia (OO) is an uncommon but treatable cause of osteomalacia related to tumor production of FGF23, usually caused by benign mesenchymal neoplasms. Paranasal sinus glomangiomas are a rare cause of OO, with only one previously reported case. Here we describe a second case (first reported in English) of paranasal sinus glomangioma-induced osteomalacia in a 42-year-old man. He presented with weakness and multiple spontaneous fractures, and was found to have an ethmoid sinus glomangioma with intracranial extension. The tumor was removed via endoscopic endonasal approach to the anterior skull base, which resulted in complete resolution of symptoms and no further evidence of disease 1 year postoperatively.

Orbital AVFs, abnormal vascular connections between orbital arteries and veins, are extremely rare. Often traumatic, few reports of spontaneous orbital fistulas have been reported so far. Treatment is warranted for deteriorating visual symptoms, but obliteration of the fistula can be challenging. We present such a case that symptomatically mirrored a carotid cavernous fistula. A novel approach was used by traversing a thrombosed superior ophthalmic vein to embolize the lesion. In addition, a complete literature review is presented.
