Background Given the low haemorrhagic risk of intracranial low-grade dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs), the benefits of routine intervention remain controversial. This study compares patient ...

Figure 2 Brain AngioCT tridimensional reconstruction showing a left dural arteriovenous fistula involving mainly the posterior arterial and venous circulations (arrow).

She also attended a week-long training at Bwaila Fistula Centre to help her master tailoring skills. Part of the programme empowers fistula survivors to rebuild by supporting them with start-up ...

Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas constitute a rare though potentially devastating disease. Because the arterial (high-pressure) blood flow drains directly into the low-pressure venous system, ...

Background Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are rare lesions, making it challenging to fully understand and improve their management. Globally, only two major large-scale studies have ...

Cerebral angiography revealed dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF). To treat DAVF, the medullary tumor was surgically resected, and histopathological analysis confirmed the presence of an ependymoma ...

Dural arteriovenous fistulas are usually associated with increased cerebral blood flow on arterial-spin-labeling, a sensitive and specific sign of arteriovenous shunting. 1, 2 We report a case of ...

Dural arteriovenous fistulas are contained within the dural leaflets, making them a unique arteriovenous shunt of the central nervous system. Those without cortical venous drainage may be found ...

Isolated intraventricular hemorrhage due to dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) is extremely rare and has been reported only a few times in the literature. The pathophysiological cause of isolated ...
