TRANSVENOUS APPROACH FOR INDIRECT CAROTID-CAVERNOUS FISTULA USING DETACHABLE COILS: A CASE REPORT AND REVIEW OF TREATMENT OPTIONS.
Acta Clinica Croatica 2022 November
Carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is a relatively rare pathology with a low incidence compared with other vascular pathologies. They can be classified based on hemodynamics as low- or high-flow fistulas, and anatomically as direct or indirect fistulas. Anatomy of the shunt somewhat dictates the selection of endovascular treatment, meaning the venous or arterial approach and selection of embolizing materials. Although there is general agreement as to when to access CCF transvenously or transarterialy, which depends on the shunt being direct or indirect, there is no uniform agreement on which occlusion method should be used. Herein, we report a case of an 80-year-old woman treated for indirect CCF using detachable coils. We also provide a brief review of the literature, including recent advances in treatment of said entities. In conclusion, selection of both the approach and material used depends on the operator's experience and preference.
