Acute Formation of a Blunt Trauma-induced Vertebral Artery Arteriovenous Fistula Treated with Endovascular Occlusion of Vertebral Artery

Fistulous cerebrovascular injuries can occur spontaneously, iatrogenically following surgical procedures, or can result as a consequence of penetrating trauma. To our knowledge, this is only the second reported case of blunt-trauma induced cervical vertebral artery arteriovenous fistula (AVF) format...

description Fistulous cerebrovascular injuries can occur spontaneously, iatrogenically following surgical procedures, or can result as a consequence of penetrating trauma. To our knowledge, this is only the second reported case of blunt-trauma induced cervical vertebral artery arteriovenous fistula (AVF) formation in a 55-year-old male. This was successfully occluded with N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) embolization of the recipient vein and endovascular coil ligation of the vertebral artery.
