Аннотация
OBJECTIVE: Carotid cavernous fistulas (CCFs) represent uncommon and anomalous communications between the carotid artery and the cavernous sinus.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Case report RESULTS: We present the clinical details and successful management of a previously healthy 44-year-old patient who presented with one-month worsening headache, bilateral abducens palsy and conjunctival injection. Imaging modalities including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) facilitated the diagnosis of CCF. The patient underwent endovascular coiling of the CCF, leading to neurological recovery and symptom remission.
CONCLUSION: This case highlights the importance of promptly CCF diagnosis in patients with multiple cranial nerve palsies and conjunctival hyperemia. Moreover, it emphasizes the efficacy of endovascular coiling in achieving symptom remission.
