ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The sphenoid wing dural arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is rare, and can manifest with severe symptoms, particularly in cases classified as greater sphenoid wing type. Endovascular therapy is generally employed, however, open surgical intervention could be warranted in cases with complex fistula.METHOD:
We present a case with ruptured greater sphenoid wing dural AVF (Cognard type IV), in which endovascular embolization using liquid material was performed, followed by open surgery to concurrently disconnect the fistula and evacuate the hematoma.CONCLUSION:
The sphenoid wing dural AVFs may be effectively cured by open surgery for fistula disconnection in conjunction with endovascular embolization.Palavras-chave
