Transvenous Embolization with Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol and Arterial Flow Control of a Dural Arteriovenous Fistula of the Isolated Transverse Sinus.

Dural arteriovenous fistulas draining into an isolated sinus often require a multimodal treatment, with transarterial and transvenous approaches. ^1-6 However, there is no consensus about the injection technique. Some authors suggest filling the sinus with coils in order to have a compact cast without unnecessary migration of the embolic material. We present a case of a patient with left temporal hemorrhage caused by a dural arteriovenous fistula on the isolated left transverse sinus. In this operative video we demonstrate how the arterial flow control during treatment allows us to obtain a compact cast of the embolic material inside the isolated sinus without coils (Video 1).
