Implication

Retrospective analysis evaluates safety and outcomes of endovascular embolization in carotid-cavernous fistulas, suggesting effective long-term results.

Key Points

This analysis aims to evaluate the safety, technical success, and long-term clinical outcomes of endovascular embolization for carotid-cavernous fistulas.
Retrospective single-center analysis of patients with carotid-cavernous fistulas treated with endovascular embolization.
Evaluated outcomes included procedural success, symptom resolution, complications, and follow-up occlusion rates.
Cerebral angiography was used for diagnosis and follow-up assessment.
Immediate complete occlusion achieved in 48% (11/23) of cases.
Final follow-up demonstrated complete fistula closure in 91.3% (21/23) of patients.
Clinical improvement noted in 91.3% (21/23), with 61% achieving complete resolution.
