Direct carotid cavernous sinus fistula is a common delayed complication of head trauma, particularly in patients with skull base fractures. When carotid cavernous sinus fistula occurs together with carotid artery dissection, it poses a big challenge regarding successful treatment. Endovascular treatment options include occlusion with detachable balloons, coils, and Pipeline flow diverters (Chestnut Medical Technologies, Menlo Park [CA], USA). Here we describe the successful management of a patient with dual pathology with traumatic carotid cavernous sinus fistula and internal carotid artery dissection with multiple pseudoaneurysms using flow diverters and detachable coils.

直接型頸動脈海綿竇瘻屬於顱外傷的常見遲發併發症,尤其好發於顱底骨折患者中。一旦頸動脈海綿竇瘻併發頸動脈剝離,對成功治療會構成很大挑戰。血管內治療方案包括使用可拆卸球囊、彈簧圈和管道分流器進行閉塞。本文描述一個使用分流器和彈簧圈成功治療外傷性頸動脈海綿竇瘻併發頸內動脈剝離和多個假性動脈瘤的病例。
