Mack, M.D. Department of Neurosurgery, University of Southern California, Los Angeles Open surgical disconnection has long been the treatment of choice for dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) of the anterior cranial fossa. However, advanced patient age and the presence of medical comorbidities can substantially increase the risk of craniotomy and favor a less invasive, endovascular approach. Optimal positioning within the distal ophthalmic artery, beyond the origin of the central retinal branch, is achievable using current microcatheter technology and embolic materials. Here we present the case of an 88-year-old female with an incidentally discovered dAVF of the anterior cranial fossa. Angiographic cure was achieved with one-stage Onyx embolization. |
