Abstract

Posterior communicating artery (PCoA) aneurysm-cavernous sinus fistulae are an extremely rare complication of head injury . The treatment of PCoA aneurysm-cavernous sinus fistulae has not been well described. A 27-year-old man was admitted with a retroocular bruit and blurred vision of the left eye seven months after a severe head injury. We report the angiographic appearance of a posterior communicating artery (PCoA) aneurysm with a fistula to the cavernous sinus. This injury had been previously misinterpreted to be a PCoA aneurysm by computerized tomographic angiography (CTA). The patient was successfully treated with coils and Onyx of a fistula between the PCoA aneurysm and cavernous sinus.

Özet

Posterior komünikan arter (PCoA) anevrizması-kavernöz sinüs fistülü kafa travmasının çok nadir bir komplikasyonudur. PCoA anevrizmasıkavernöz sinüs fistülünün tedavisi iyi tanımlanmamıştır. 27 yaşında bir erkek şiddetli bir kafa travmasından yedi ay sonra retrooküler bruit ve sol gözde bulanık görmeyle başvurdu. Kavernöz sinüse fistülle birlikte posterior komünikan arter (PCoA) anevrizmasının anjiyografik görünümünü bildiriyoruz. Bu yaralanma daha önce bilgisayarlı tomografik anjiyografide (BTA) yanlışlıkla PCoA anevrizması olarak yorumlanmıştı. Hastada PCoA anevrizmasıyla kavernöz sinüs arasındaki fistül Onyx ve sarmallarla başarıyla tedavi edildi.
