We describe a 39-year-old woman with dural arteriovenous fistula in the region of transverse-sigmoid sinus. A combination approach was designed to treat the fistula but the balloon failed to pass the severely stenosed proximal end of a subtotally isolated sinus. Although successfully occlusion of most feeding arteries from a single arterial injection was achieved, Onyx was found to shift to the outflow tract of the right heart ventricle and then to the lung latterly on six month follow-up.

Background There is no consensus as to whether balloon angioplasty alone or stent placement is effective for sinus occlusion associated with dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF). Herein, we first report a case of transverse sinus occlusion associated with DAVF in which gradual sinus dilatation was observed after balloon angioplasty with embolization of the affected sinus with shunt flow. Case presentation A 69-year-old man presented with executive dysfunction. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed left transverse sinus–sigmoid sinus DAVF with occlusion of the left jugular vein and right transverse sinus. Before endovascular treatment, the patient had symptomatic epilepsy and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Retrograde leptomeningeal venous drainage disappeared with packing of the left transverse sinus–sigmoid sinus. Subsequently, balloon angioplasty of the right occluded transverse sinus was performed to maintain the normal venous drainage and remaining shunt outflow. Dilatation of the right transverse sinus was poor immediately after surgery. However, angiography after 10 days and 6 months revealed gradual dilatation of the right transverse sinus. Conclusion Sinus occlusion, which is thought to be caused by sinus hypertension associated with DAVF rather than chronic organized thrombosis or thrombophilia, may dilate over time after balloon angioplasty and shunt flow reduction if occluded sinus is necessary for facilitating normal venous drainage.

Transvenous embolization has been recommended recently as the primary treatment for symptomatic cavernous dural arteriovenous fistula(dural AVF). We present a case of sigmoid sinus dural AVF which developed after transvenous embolization of cavernous dural AVF A 43-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of left conjunctival chemosis, exophthalmus and abducens nerve palsy. Cerebral angiograms showed left cavernous dural AVF fed by the bilateral internal and external carotid arteries and draining into the enlarged left superior ophthalmic vein. Transfemoral approach in the cavernous sinus via inferior petrosal sinus (IPS) was difficult because of the occlusive change of IPS. Then, direct canulation of the left superior ophthalmic vein and transvenous embolization using interlocking detachable coils (IDC) were performed. Dural AVF and clinical symptoms were disappeard rapidly after embolization. Six months later, follow-up cerebral angiograms showed development of a dural AVF in the left sigmoid sinus. The pathogenesis of dural AVF remains unclear. We suggest that injury to the sinus wall during endovascular procedures may have provoked the development of dural AVF in our case. Clinical and angiographical follow-up are important.

The authors report an unusual case of a dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) draining only to the diploic vein and causing intracerebral hemorrhage. A 62-year-old woman presented with disturbance of consciousness and left hemiparesis. Brain CT scanning on admission showed a right frontal subcortical hemorrhage. Digital subtraction angiography revealed an arteriovenous shunt located in the region around the pterion, which connected the frontal branch of the right middle meningeal artery with the anterior temporal diploic vein and drained into cortical veins in a retrograde manner through the falcine vein. The dAVF was successfully obliterated by percutaneous transarterial embolization with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate. The mechanism of retrograde cortical venous reflux causing intracerebral hemorrhage is discussed.

Subdural contrast effusion secondary to endovascular treatment is exceptionally rare and might be mistaken as subdural hematoma because of similar hyperattenuation on computer tomography. The authors present the case of a 13-month-old girl with a history of increased head circumference and developmental retardation. Cerebral digital subtraction angiography showed a high-flow pial arteriovenous fistula fed by multiple arteries on the right cerebellar surface, with occlusion of the right sigmoid sinus and severe stenosis of the left sigmoid sinus. Staged endovascular treatments were performed to eliminate the fistula. Follow-up head computer tomography scans performed 3 h after both procedures demonstrated typical high-density subdural effusion with computer tomography attenuation value similar to hemorrhage. These effusions did not aggravate the condition and disappeared spontaneously 32 h after the first treatment and 29 h after the second, respectively.

Glue Embolization

We describe a case of a 75-year-old man who presented with acute onset of headache and subarachnoid hemorrhage and initial cerebral angiography was deemed “negative”. In retrospect, a faint contrast collection was present adjacent to the right vertebral artery at the C1 level suspicious for a small dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF). Follow-up angiography with selective micro-catheter injections of the right vertebral artery and C1 radicular artery confirmed a complex dAVF with characteristically specific venous drainage patterns associated with a subarachnoid hemorrhage presentation. Subsequently, the cervical dAVF was treated with superselective glue embolization resulting in complete occlusion. Cervical dAVFs are extremely rare vascular causes of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Both diagnostic angiography and endovascular treatment of these lesions can be challenging, especially in an emergent setting, requiring selective evaluation of bilateral vertebral arteries and careful attention to their cervical segments. Although only a single prior case of a cervical dAVF presenting with subarachnoid hemorrhage has been successfully treated with embolization, modern selective transarterial techniques may allow easier detection and treatment of subtle pathologic arteriovenous connections.

Abstract A 40-yr-old male with no significant past medical history presented with sudden onset right-sided retro-orbital headache associated with vision loss after a session of strenuous exercise. Initial assessment with noncontrast head computed tomography at the local emergency department revealed a right sided occipital intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). On arrival the patient ad a left quadrantopsia with Glasgow Coma Scale of 15 and an ICH score of 0. A computed tomographic angiography showed a high density 6 × 9 mm vascular lesion associated with 2 tortuous vessels. Cerebral angiography revealed a right sided dural arteriovenous fistula, Cognard Type IV, with arterial feeders arising from dural branches of the right vertebral artery, the posterior division of the right middle meningeal artery and meningeal branches distal to the neuromeningeal trunk of the left ascending pharyngeal artery.1 Four days after the ICH event the patient was treated with endovascular Onyx embolization of the fistula, through a transradial approach. Immediate angiographic assessment showed complete obliteration of the dAVF. The patient was discharged home and recovered his visual field deficit over 3 mo. The following operative video includes a discussion of the endovascular technique and treatment nuances associated with the transarterial management of a dural arteriovenous fistula. Patient consent was given prior to the procedure and consent and approval for this operative video was waived due to the retrospective nature of this manuscript and the anonymized video material.

Transvenous occlusion of an affected sinus has become a standardized curative treatment for dural sinus arteriovenous fistula. A 57-year-old man with a left sigmoid sinus isolated dural AVF was successfully treated with tansarterial followed by transvenous embolization. Follow-up angiography one year and two months thereafter showed complete disappearance of the dural AVF. However, one year later, superior parasagittal sinus dural arteriovenous fistula had newly developed, for which the etiology and a careful point for follow-up are here discussed.
