[Dural arteriovenous fistula of the anterior cranial fossa associated with occlusion of the internal carotid artery: a case report].
We reported a case with dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) of the anterior cranial fossa associated with occlusion of the left cervical internal carotid artery. A 73-year-old man was admitted with total aphasia and right hemiparesis. Computed tomography showed an ischemic lesion of the left cerebral hemisphere and old infarction of the left occipital lobe. Angiography revealed occlusion of the left cervical internal carotid artery and dAVF of the anterior cranial fossa, fed by the left middle meningeal and the right anterior ethmoidal artery. Follow-up angiography revealed spontaneous recanalization and severe arteriosclerosis of the left internal carotid artery. After marked improvement of neurological deficits, the patient underwent surgical clipping of the draining veins to occlude the dAVF of the anterior cranial fossa. We speculated that marked development of the collateral circulation from the external carotid system might result in the occurrence of dAVF of the anterior cranial fossa.
