A Case of De Novo Anterior Condylar Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Long after Curative Transvenous Embolization of Contralateral Anterior Condylar Arteriovenous Fistula

Abstract EN

We report on a 55-year-old man who developed a de novo DAVF in left ACC 5 years after curative transvenous embolization for DAVF in right ACC.

Angiography revealed that the de novo lesion demonstrated more aggressive arteriovenous shunt flow than the initial lesion.

Successful transvenous embolization was performed for also the second lesion.

The authors describe the possible pathophysiological mechanisms and management strategies for this rare occurrence.
