Middle Meningeal Arteriovenous Fistula and Its Spontaneous Closure: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

摘要

Middle meningeal artery pseudo-aneurysms and arteriovenous fistulas are usually post-traumatic, although occasional iatrogenic cases have been reported. The treatment has been obliteration of the fistula by surgical or endovascular means. Spontaneous closure of fistula is uncommon. We report a case of non-traumatic middle meningeal arteriovenous fistula in a patient with alcoholism, which resolved spontaneously without treatment.
