Surviving a Rare Case: Successful Endovascular Treatment for Multiple Dural Venous Sinus Thrombosis With Dural Arteriovenous Fistula

Vascular anomalies known as dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) occur when arteries that emerge from carotid or vertebral artery branches empty straight into the dural venous sinuses. A 16-year-old male patient at the center of this case study initially arrived at the hospital with symptoms of generalized tonic-clonic seizures and headaches accompanied by vomiting, followed by right-sided hemiparesis and subsequently left-sided hemiparesis. An MRI brain with MR angiography was performed, revealing an abnormal fistulous connection between the sigmoid and transverse sinus and the branches of the bilateral external carotid and right internal carotid artery. Embolization was performed using a mixture of glue and lipoid to address the issue.
