Abstract:
Carotid cavernous fistula is the abnormal arteriovenous communications, which can be located within the internal carotid cavernous segment itself, or between the cavernous and the internal carotid branches or external carotid meningeal branches. With the development of interventional neuroradiology, endovascular embolization has become the choice of treatment for the carotid cavernous fistula, as the technique is less invasive, simple and reliable. This paper aims to review the recent progresses in this respect in order to further improve its clinical diagnosis and treatment.
