Typically, dAVF treatment involves an endovascular or microsurgical approach. Anterior ethmoidal artery (AEA) dAVFs pose unique challenges due to their anatomy and location.

Background: Trans-arterial embolization (TAE) via the ophthalmic artery and middle meningeal arterial are the common arterial routes for anterior cranial fossa (ACF) dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs). However, TAE via the sphenopalatine artery (SPA) to treat ACF DAVFs is rarely reported. Here, we describe 14 cases of ACF DAVFs that were either treated solely or in conjunction with other arterial routes via the SPA.

Background: The Onyx™ Liquid Embolic System is a non-adhesive liquid embolic agent, which has been proved by the US FDA for embolization of lesions in the peripheral and neurovasculature since 2005. We reported a case of ischemic optic neuropathy after using Onyx-18 to embolize the anterior ethmoid arteries that feeding dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVF).
Case Presentation: A 57-year-old Asian male presented with anterior cranial fossa DAVF underwent embolotherapy by delivering Onyx-18 through a microcatheter into the anterior ethmoid arteries under angiography guidance.
