Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Embolization by Combined Transarterial and Transcutaneous Approach

Aqueel PABANEY presents the case of a 50-year-old man who came to the hospital following an assault. Although his neurological exam was normal, he mentionned a soft, pulsatile mass in the parietal region.

CT scan and angiography revealed significant venous dilation, and further investigations confirmed a dural arteriovenous fistula, classified as Borden type III, carrying a high risk of rupture.

The surgical team opted for embolization using a combined transarterial and transcutaneous approach.
