✓ Spontaneous intracerebral hematoma associated with carotid-cavernous fistula is rare. Three new cases are presented. In each, the hemorrhage originated in the vicinity of localized intracranial venous engorgement, as demonstrated by cerebral angiography. Rupture of one or several of the distended venous channels from increased back-flow is postulated as the etiology of the intraparenchymal hematomas.

Carotid-cavernous fistulas are abnormal vascular communications between the carotid artery or its branches and the cavernous sinus. They often present with visual symptoms and signs, such as proptosis, chemosis, diplopia, or conjunctival injection. In this chapter, we begin by reviewing the types of carotid-cavernous fistula and their respective causes. We next discuss the symptoms, signs, and potential complications of carotid-cavernous fistula. We then discuss noninvasive imaging approaches for the diagnostic evaluation of carotid-cavernous fistula, although digital subtraction cerebral angiography is necessary for definitive diagnosis. Lastly, we review the management options for carotid cavernous fistula, including approaches that can minimize or address potential visual complications.

✓ The authors report two cases of spontaneous carotid-cavernous fistula that occurred during pregnancy. One patient was a 21-year-old woman whose symptoms improved and in whom disappearance of the carotid-cavernous fistula was confirmed by cerebral angiography after she aborted in the 12th week of pregnancy. The other patient was a 25-year-old woman in whom a carotid-cavernous fistula occurred at about the 28th week of pregnancy. The symptoms became aggravated 3 weeks after a normal delivery. Carotid-cavernous fistula was confirmed by cerebral angiography, and the clinical symptoms then improved. On the basis of cerebral angiographic findings, both patients were considered to have dural arteriovenous fistulas in the region of the cavernous sinus and both demonstrated spontaneous improvement.

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.
