RESUMO
A dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) involving the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) is relatively rare, and its clinical course is usually aggressive. Its concomitance with a tumor has rarely been reported. Here, we present a case of SSS dAVF due to meningioma invasion, which was treated with sinus reconstruction and endovascular embolization. A 75-year-old man who had undergone tumor resection for parasagittal meningioma 4 years prior presented with intra-ventricular hemorrhage. Computed tomography angiography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed recurrent tumor invasion into the SSS causing occlusion. Cerebral angiography revealed multiple shunts along the occluded segment of the SSS, diffuse deep venous congestion, and cortical reflux. Borden type 3 SSS dAVF was diagnosed. We first performed direct tumor resection, followed by stenting for the occluded SSS and partial embolization of the shunts. After a 6-month interval, transvenous occlusion of the SSS was performed along the stent, resulting in complete obliteration of the dAVF. Sinus reconstruction therapy was effective in the immediate improvement of venous hypertension, obtaining the access route to the fistulas, and eradicating the shunts.
