Objective: We treated a case of scalp arteriovenous malformation (sAVM) by transvenous embolization using Onyx.
Case Presentation: We describe the case of a 17-year-old woman with a pulsatile mass at the right temporal area. DSA identified sAVM with the venous pouch between the right occipital artery (OA) and the right two occipital veins (OVs), which was also fed by multiple branches of the right posterior auricular artery (PAA) and superficial temporal artery (STA). The shunts were completely occluded by the reverse pressure cooker technique (RPCT), which involves navigating the balloon catheters just distal to the shunt point in the OVs approaching from the right external jugular vein (EJV) and injecting Onyx to each feeder retrogradely with balloons inflated.
Conclusion: This technique may be useful for treating sAVM with venous angioarchitecture enabling a transvenous approach.

Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) is an autoimmune blistering disease characterized by the disruption of the epidermal cell adhesion protein desmoglein 1 (DsG1). PF classically presents with superficial erosions or blisters, but can rarely mimic other dermatological conditions, which makes diagnosis challenging. We report the case of a 57-year-old Sri Lankan man with a one-month history of widespread ichthyosis-like plaques and scales which started on his scalp and progressed in a cranio-caudal fashion and were associated with pruritus and few blisters.
