We present a rare case of endovascular transarterial treatment in a newborn with symptomatic dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF). Through direct carotid puncture, complete occlusion of the fistula was achieved in a single session. This therapeutic approach demonstrates safety and efficacy in neonatal DAVF treatment. The patient showed significant improvement, with symptoms resolved and complications absent. The successful outcome highlights the importance of early recognition and prompt intervention in pediatric DAVFs.
我们报告了一例罕见的新生儿症状性硬脑膜动静脉瘘(DAVF)的血管内动脉治疗病例。通过直接颈动脉穿刺,单次治疗即实现了瘘口的完全闭塞。这种治疗方法在新生儿DAVF治疗中显示出安全性和有效性。患者症状明显改善,症状消失且无并发症。这一成功结果凸显了小儿DAVF早期识别和及时干预的重要性。
