Idiopathic occlusion of nearly all cerebral venous sinuses in association with the widespread formation of dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) is an extremely rare condition. The cause-and-effect relationship between thrombosis and AVF is not known, but a disturbance in venous flow and distant stagnation has been mentioned as probable pathomechanisms. We introduce a patient that was misdiagnosed as Parkinson's disease and treated accordingly for weeks. Then, rapidly-progressive dementia and shortly after that, an intracerebral hemorrhage occurred, and the diagnosis was established after Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Angiography. There were a whole venous sinus system thrombosis and the formation of numerous dural arteriovenous fistulas. The mechanism and diagnostic nuances are described in this paper, and the treatment options and prognosis are discussed.

Dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) of the cavernous sinus are arteriovenous connections located in the dura mater leaflets of this region. The usual presentation of a DAVF is predominantly ocular, with symptoms such as diplopia, conjunctival injection, involvement of cranial nerves III/IV/VI, exophthalmos, and chemosis. Trigeminal neuralgia caused by a cavernous DAVF is extremely rare. To the best our knowledge, this is only the fourth report in the world literature. We describe the case of a patient treated by embolization in whom the only presenting symptom of DAVF was trigeminal neuralgia. After endovascular treatment, the patient became asymptomatic.
