“…ollowing the introduction of detachable latex balloons by Serbinenko 1 in 1974, Debrun et al [2][3][4][5] popularized the detachable balloon technique to treat carotid cavernous fistulas (CCF). As the first endovascular tool to treat CCF, detachable balloons became the method of choice with reported success rates ranging between 75%-88% in occluding the fistulas and preserving the patency of the parent internal carotid artery (ICA).…”

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Carotid cavernous fistulas (CCF) can be effectively treated by using different therapeutic alternatives such as detachable balloons and detachable coils, alone or in combination with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (n-BCA) or Onyx. Stents have also been used in an attempt to improve preservation of the parent artery while still occluding the fistula. We present our experience using balloon-expandable covered stents to treat CCF, focusing on arterial wall reconstruction. To our knowledge, this is the first series with midterm follow-up between 3 months and 3.5 years.

The case of a 2-month-old girl is described in whom an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) was observed in the paramedial region of the right cerebral hemisphere associated with an arachnoid cyst in the right fronto-parieto-temporo-occipital region. The only treatment was evacuation of the arachnoid cyst by trephination. When the child was 3 years old, images of the AVM were not found although all the intracranial vessels were angiographically explored. It is considered that the reduced pressure in the right cranial cavity due to the drainage of the arachnoid cyst may contribute to the occlusion of the AVM by causing a slight displacement of the intracranial structures towards the side of the drained cyst.

“…Many methods for endovascular treatment using detachable balloons with or without preservation of the ICA have been described starting with Serbinenko and Debrun et al 2,3 . Gugliemi electrically detachable coils (GDC) were introduced in 1991 and have been used described for CCF occlusion since 1997 4 .…”

SUMMARY -Endovascular treatment of direct carotid cavernous fistula (CCF) can be performed by either arterial or venous approaches. The aim is to disconnect the fistula with or without preservation of the internal carotid artery (ICA). The aim of this article is to describe a technique for embolization of the cavernous sinus and the ICA in direct CCF using coils. Trapping the distal aspectof the fistula using a retrograde navigation via the vertebrobasilar system and the posterior communicating artery was performed in two cases. Clinical and radiological evolutions are described.
