Article Synopsis
  • Historically, musculoskeletal (MSK) tumors have been treated separately, but the complications from metastases, like pain and fractures, require a team of experts to decide on the best treatments, including surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.
  • * Recently, minimally invasive interventional therapies, particularly image-guided ablation techniques, have gained traction as promising options to effectively treat MSK tumors, offering less invasive alternatives.
  • * Imaging methods like CT, which is preferred for its accessibility, guide these interventions, which include techniques like radiofrequency ablation and cryoablation, sometimes combined with other treatments for better tumor control.

Background And Objectives: Dural arteriovenous fistulas are anomalous shunts between dural arterial and venous channels whose nidus is located between the dural leaflets. For those circumstances when invasive treatment is mandatory, endovascular techniques have grown to become the mainstay of practice, choice attributable to their reported safety and effectiveness. We describe the unique and rare case of a dural arteriovenous fistula treated by transarterial embolization and complicated by an intraventricular hemorrhage.
