Description

In treating cavernous sinus dural arteriovenous fistulas (CSdAVFs), a thorough understanding of angioarchi-tecture, especially identifying the shunt (s), is mandatory to obtain optimal results by endovascular therapy. In this article, the functional angiology of the cavernous sinus and surrounding structure, which is necessary to obtain the pathophysiology of this disease, is described in the first half. In the latter half, a practical endovascular therapy for CSdAVF, focusing on the idea of superselective shunt occlusion (SSSO) is presented. Since 2003, we have chosen this method as our first line therapy for treating CSdAVFs, and successful SSSO was achieved in nine cases out of fourteen (64.3%). SSSO is highly possible in cases where the shunt segment was obviously identified outside the cavernous sinus. This method can achieve the angiographic cure of CSdAVFs while preserving the normal venous drainage, and since there is less chance of unfavorable permanent cranial nerve palsy it should be considered before sinus packing or mere obliteration of the dangerous venous drainages.
