A Treatment Option for Nontraumatic Adult-Type Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas: Transarterial Venous Coil Embolization

摘要

OBJECTIVE: Transvenous coil embolization of the affected venous outlet is the most effective treatment method for the management of nontraumatic adult dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs). However, such an approach is not always feasible. We discuss nontraumatic adult DAVFs that were treated with transarterial coil embolization of the proximal venous outlet at our facility, as well as cases previously reported in the literature.
