⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

We present a case of DAVF with feeding vessels from the middle meningeal and occipital branches of the left external carotid artery, treated primarily by superselective embolization and upon recanalization of the occipital feeders within three months, Gamma Knife was applied and subsequent embolization was performed for the second time

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Dural arteriovenous fistulae DAVF are abnormal connections between the branches of dural arteries and dural veins or venous sinuses.
📊
Key Findings & Data:They may consist of numerous fistulous connections, and venous drainage patterns show variations which make the treatment strategy difficult.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:We present a case of DAVF with feeding vessels from the middle meningeal and occipital branches of the left external carotid artery, treated primarily by superselective embolization and upon recanalization of the occipital feeders within three months, Gamma Knife was applied and subsequent embolization was performed for the second time

Abstract

Dural arteriovenous fistulae DAVF are abnormal connections between the branches of dural arteries and dural veins or venous sinuses. They may consist of numerous fistulous connections, and venous drainage patterns show variations which make the treatment strategy difficult. We present a case of DAVF with feeding vessels from the middle meningeal and occipital branches of the left external carotid artery, treated primarily by superselective embolization and upon recanalization of the occipital feeders within three months, Gamma Knife was applied and subsequent embolization was performed for the second time

Özet

Dural arteriovenöz fistüller DAVF dural arterler ve venler veya sinüsler arasındaki anormal vasküler bağlantılardan oluşan lezyonlardır. Çok sayıda fistül içerebilmeleri ve venöz drenaj paternlerindeki değişiklikler tedavi kararında güçlüklere neden olabilmektedir. Biz bu yazıda sol eksternal karotid arterin orta meningeal ve oksipital dallarından dolan, önce süperselektif olarak embolize edilen ve 3 ay sonraki kontrolde oksipital besleyicilerinin rekanalize olduğu gözlenen DAVF’ li olguya ikinci kez uyguladığımız kombine süperselektif embolizasyon artı Gamma Knife tedavisini sunmaktayız
