Intracranial Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas

Seminars in Neurology, 2023
AbstractDural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are abnormal communications between meningeal arteries and dural venous sinuses and/or cortical veins. Although many fistulas are benign and do not require treatment, some may carry a significant risk of bleeding or cause symptoms and warrant treatment.

Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas*

Clinical Neuroradiology, 2009
Spontaneous dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are abnormal arteriovenous shunts within the dura mater of the sinuses. The exact etiology remains uncertain. Arterial feeder derive from the meningeal branches in the region. The clinical symptoms are highly dependent on the venous drainage.

Dural Arteriovenous Fistula

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America
Dural arteriovenous fistulas are rare cerebrovascular lesions arising from abnormal connections between an artery and a vein. Though rare, high-grade aggressive lesions can cause hemorrhagic events and non-hemorrhagic neurologic deficits if left untreated.

Management of Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas

2022
Dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) is an acquired lesion. The dural arteries connect with the dural veins within the dura mater in the histopathological study. Sinus type involves the cavernous sinus, transverse-sigmoid sinus, superior sagittal sinus, and anterior condylar confluence (or condylar canal).

Multiplicity of dural arteriovenous fistulas

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2002
Object. Dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are a well-known pathoanatomical and clinical entity. Excluding bilateral involvement of the cavernous sinus, multiple dural AVFs are rare, with isolated reports in the literature. The additional risk associated with multiplicity is unknown, although it has been claimed that there is a greater risk of ...

Radiosurgery for dural arteriovenous fistulas

Surgical Neurology, 2005
Dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) comprise 10% to 15% of all arteriovenous malformations. Recent studies have demonstrated promising results when radiosurgery is used for DAVFs. We retrospectively analyzed our patients with DAVFs who received stereotactic radiosurgery with or without embolization.Between 1991 and 2002, 18 patients with 23 ...
