Post-traumatic carotid-cavernous fistulas are due to a tear in the wall of the cavernous carotid artery, leading to shunting of blood into the cavernous sinus. These are generally high-flow fistula and rarely resolve spontaneously. Most cases require endovascular embolization. We report a case of Barrow type A carotid-cavernous fistula which resolved spontaneously.
创伤性颈内动脉海绵窦瘘是由于海绵窦段颈内动脉壁撕裂,导致血液分流至海绵窦。这些通常是高流量瘘,很少能自发缓解。大多数病例需要血管内栓塞治疗。我们报告一例自发缓解的巴罗A型颈内动脉海绵窦瘘病例。
