Abstract |
We present a rare case of dural arteriovenous fistula of the anterior condylar vein presenting with conjunctival injection and proptosis, and pulsatile tinnitus on the right side. A two-session transvenous and transarterial embolization, using fibered pushable coils and n-butyl cyanoacrylate, respectively, resulted in complete obliteration of the fistula without complication. The angioarchitecture, pathophysiology, and management of the fistula will be discussed. |
