Dural arteriovenous fistula, (AVF), a rare entity, presents most commonly in adults. An 11-month-old boy presented with symptoms of congenital toxoplasmosis associated with an extensive dural AVF of the torcular Herophili and bilateral occlusion of the transverse and sigmoid sinuses. His intracranial venous drainage had become rerouted via the cavernous sinuses to the ophthalmic veins. The relationship of toxoplasmosis and sinus thrombosis to the pathogenesis of dural AVF and their clinical and radiological features are discussed.
硬脑膜动静脉瘘(AVF)是一种罕见的疾病,最常见于成年人。一名11个月大的男孩出现先天性弓形虫病症状,伴有横窦乙状窦汇广泛的硬脑膜AVF以及横窦和乙状窦双侧闭塞。他的颅内静脉引流已通过海绵窦改道至眼静脉。本文讨论了弓形虫病和窦血栓形成与硬脑膜AVF发病机制的关系及其临床和影像学特征。
