Cerebral Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas

open access: yesStroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2022
Dural arteriovenous fistulas are contained within the dural leaflets, making them a unique arteriovenous shunt of the central nervous system. Those without cortical venous drainage may be found incidentally or in a workup of pulsatile tinnitus or ocular symptoms. These symptoms may also occur in the setting of cortical venous drainage, but additionally,

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.

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 ...

Imaging of Dural Arteriovenous Fistula

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2012
Spinal dural arterial venous fistulas (SDAVFs) are the most common vascular malformation of the spine. They typically present in elderly men with slowly progressive myelopathic symptoms. They often go undiagnosed because of the similar clinical presentation of more common entities in this age group.

Tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulas

Surgical Neurology, 2007
Tentorial dural arteriovenous fistula is uncommon but is a life-threatening lesion. We present our experience with 5 patients with TDAVFs, review the relevant literature, and present the rationale of our current management strategy.The data of 5 patients with TDAVFs treated in Huashan Hospital, Shanghai, China, between June 2002 and May 2003 were ...

Radiosurgery for Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas

2019
Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are abnormal arteriovenous connections within the dura, in which meningeal arteries shunt blood directly into the dural sinus or leptomeningeal veins. Among all the treatment options for the treatment of DAVFs, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a safe and effective modality.
