Pathogenetic and therapeutic considerations of carotid-cavernous sinus fistulas

Abstract: Carotid-cavernous sinus fistula (CCF) is a syndrome in which arteriovenous shunts exist between the carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. These shunts vary widely in pathogenesis, angiogram, haemodynamics and treatment. Several systems of classification in terms of either haemodynamics, aetiology and/or pathogenesis have been reported, but they are not comprehensive. A more comprehensive and simpler nomenclature of classification is now required. Fifty seven cases of CCFs were analyzed and were classified ac… Show more

“…(4)(5)(6) 10-20% of direct fistula may be spontaneous due to rupture of aneurysm of cavernous part of ICA or weakening of the vessel wall as in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or pseudoxanthoma elasticum. (7)(8)(9) Due to high flow, pressure in the CS increases and venous flow alters in rate and direction in the draining/collecting veins and they become arterialised. Altered venous dynamics and subsequent reduction in arterial perfusion result in different clinical manifestations.…”

“…Isso só foi possível devido ao avanço tecnológico dos meios de contraste, cateteres e aparelhos de angiografia (DJINDJIAN, 1968). Estudos anatômicos e autópsias reconheceram as lesões traumáticas produzidas por laceração da parede da ACI ou ruptura de ramos intracavernosos da ACI (PARKINSON, 1964;PICARD, 1970;CLAY et al, 1975 consideram mais abrangente esta denominação, uma vez que inclui as lesões decorrentes de alterações intrínsecas da dura-máter e aquelas surgidas por ruptura traumática de ramos intracavernosos da ACI (TAKI et al, 1994;JACOBSON, 1996). A ruptura traumática de ramos intracavernosos da ACI, com formação de FCC, é extremamente rara, levando ao fato de que, rotineiramente, o termo fístula dural seja sinônimo de fístula indireta Baseados nas diferenças anatômicas e hemodinâmicas das FCC, Barrow et al (1985) as dividiram em quatro grupos, denominados, respectivamente, tipo A, tipo B, tipo C e tipo D:…”

“…Fístula carotidocavernosa indireta (FCCI) é uma comunicação entre os ramos durais das artérias carótidas externas e internas com o SC, seja por lesões que envolvem a dura-máter, seja por ruptura traumática de ramos intracavernosos da ACI (TAKI et al, 1994;JACOBSON et al, 1996). Representam os tipos B, C e D da classificação de Barrow.…”
