Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulae (DAVF) are uncommon and account for approximately 1% of all strokes. All transverse-sigmoid sinus DAVFs require treatment because of the low rate of spontaneous regression and frequent association with aggressive neurologic symptoms. Endovascular embolization which aims for permanent obliteration of the les...

Surgery and endovascular therapy are the primary treatment options for spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (SDAVF). Due to the absence of a consensus regarding which therapy yields a superior outcome, we conducted a comparative analysis of the surgical and endovascular treatment of SDAVF through a multicenter case series and a systematic literature...
Parkinsonism and rapid cognitive impairment may have many causes, but only a few have specific treatment. Cranial dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) represents 10-15% of intracranial arteriovenous malformations. Clinical manifestations depend on location and venous drainage. It is common the presence of pulsatile tinnitus, bruits and headache or he...

Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) may have subtle clinical presentations and are often misdiagnosed. Clinical status gradually deteriorates following symptom onset making prompt identification and management essential. Here we present a case of a 67-year-old patient with rapidly progressing motor and sensory deficits to eventual right he...
BACKGROUND
Spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (SDAVF) is a rare disorder with an unknown etiology. Often, the clinical presentation and imaging findings are misleading, causing this condition to be mistaken for other entities, such as demyelinating or degenerative spinal lesions.
OBSERVATIONS
The authors report a challenging case of SDAVF in which...
