OBJECTIVE: The treatment of intracranial dural arteriovenous malformations (DAVMs)
remains problematic. Options include ligature of feeding vessels, endovascular procedures …

Introduction We report here our experience in treating high-flow arteriovenous fistulas
(AVFs) of the brain and spine using balloon-assisted glue injection. Methods During a 3 …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The dural sinus occlusion has been shown to be effective
in the treatment of some dural arteriovenous shunts (DAVS). No long-term results are …

The purpose of the study was to assess the cure rate in patients with indirect carotico-
cavernous fistula (CCF) treated by transvenous embolisation via the inferior petrosal sinus …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE High-flow arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are commonly
treated by using an endovascular approach with a variety of materials. The use of a …

✓ A transvenous embolization technique in which normal cerebral venous drainage can be
spared is described. Of 26 dural carotid—cavernous fistulas treated by the authors, the …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the long-term results of irradiation alone or of embolization with or
without irradiation in patients with dural carotid cavernous fistulas (DCCFs). MATERIALS …

Seven dural arteriovenous fistulas were successfully embolized with mechanical detachable
coils. Two lesions were located in the transverse-sigmoid sinus, four in the cavernous sinus …

PURPOSE To present our preliminary experience with the recently developed interlocking
detachable coils in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. METHODS Two aneurysms of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and
reliability of the mechanical detachment system of a new platinum coil, Detach-18, when …
