Summary: We report 2 patients with dural arteriovenous fistula of the anterior condylar vein in which the patients presented with rare clinical symptoms related to unusual venous drainage patterns. The first patient had progressive myelopathy and showed venous drainage into the anterior spinal vein. The second had ocular signs and showed retrograde drainage into the superior ophthalmic vein. Complete cure was attained by transarterial glue injection in the first patient and transvenous coil embolization in the latter.
