We report two cases of idiopathic carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) with primary symptoms of headache and diplopia. A 47-year-old woman presented with throbbing headache in her right frontal region followed by right trochlear nerve palsy. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was normal but magnetic
We report a unique case of cavernous sinus(CS)-dural arteriovenous fistula(dAVF)with cluster headache-like ophthalmalgia without chemosis and exophthalmos, that was successfully treated by transvenous embolization. A 25-year-old man presented with severe right cluster headache-like ophthalmalgia and
A 69-year-old woman with a previous history of migraine without aura developed throbbing headache in the right frontal region accompanied by nausea, lasting more than 4 hours a day. The headache intensity was more severe than that of usual her migraine headaches. Administration of eletriptan in the
Background Of the multiple etiologies identified for symptomatic cluster headache, vascular origin is common; however, there are no known reports of arteriovenous (AV) fistulas. Here we report a case with typical presentation of cluster headache, which might be associated with middle meningeal AV
Dural arteriovenous fistulas are intracranial vascular malformations, fed by dural arteries and draining venous sinuses or meningeal veins. Clinical course varies widely and ranges from benign with spontaneous remission to fatal, due to cerebral hemorrhage. In a 10-year single The clinical recognition of CSF fistula is a clinical challenge. We report the case of a young woman, who presented with a late orthostatic headache 20 months after epidural anesthesia. She developed a lumbar dural fistula of CSF confirmed in myelography CT scanning and treated successfully with
Background and objectives: Spontaneous carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are rare, and they may be caused by an aneurysm rupture. Materials and Methods: A case of a man hospitalized for high-intensity hemicranial headache with sudden cough onset as part of an upper respiratory tract
One month after having a right upper lobectomy to remove a squamous cell carcinoma, a 43-year-old man presented with a 4-day history of postural headache, worsened by standing and relieved by lying. Skull films showed prominent ventricular pneumocephalus. Iophendylate myelography was unrewarding,
Cavernous sinus (CS) dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) patients presenting with only headache as an initial symptom are not common. Patients with CS-dAVF commonly present with symptoms related to their eyes. In all three patients, headache was the initial symptom. Other symptoms related to the eyes
We report 2 cases with cavernous sinus dural arteriovenous fistula (C-dAVF) presenting with headache as an initial symptom. A 70-year-old woman complained of acute persistent headache in the right temporal region. Another 74-year-old woman suffered from sudden and severe headache, developing from
Cerebrospinal fluid-venous fistula is an uncommon cause of spontaneous spinal cerebrospinal fluid leak (SSCSFL). We aim to describe the clinical presentation, imaging evaluation, treatment and outcome of SSCSFL secondary to cerebrospinal fluid-venous Hemicrania continua is a primary headache disorder characterized by a continuous, unilateral headache associated with ipsilateral cranial autonomic features that responds to indomethacin. By definition, the symptoms are not referable to an underlying structural pathology. However, Carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) generally causes periorbital aching with ocular symptoms due to high venous pressure in the cavernous sinus, while migraine is caused by arterial dilatation-stimulating trigeminal nerves around the vessels. The authors present a case of 47-year-old woman with a
BACKGROUND
Postural headaches are commonly associated with spontaneous intracranial hypotension and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage from the spine. A subarachnoid-pleural fistula (SPF) is a very rare and serious type of CSF fistula that has mostly been reported following traumatic
Pneumocephalus and pneumorrhachis are related to transgression of the barriers to the central nervous system. We present a patient with a Pancoast tumor treated with palliative chemoradiation who developed symptomatic spinal and intracranial air caused by spontaneous bronchopleurodurosubarachnoid
