    Transvenous embolization of dural caroticocavernous fistulae: technical considerations (1993)
    Springer
    Neuroradiology 35 (1993), S. 475-479 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1920
    Keywords: Dural arteriovenous fistula ; Cavernous sinus ; Transvenous embolization

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Sixteen patients with symptomatic dural caroticocavernous fistulae were treated by transvenous embolization, via the jugular vein and inferior petrosal sinus. The fistula was occuladed by thrombogenic coils. Complete resolution of symptoms and signs was achieved in 14 patients, and complete angiographic resolution was also obtained in 14 patients. Failures to achieve angiographic cure were attributed to failure to reach the fistula within the cavernous sinus precisely. Factors which make placement of the catheter at the fistula difficult are trabeculae within the cavernous sinus, a specific configuration of the superior ophthalmic vein and venous thrombosis. To improve the efficacy of tranvenous embolization, every possible venous route to the cavernous sinus therefore should be tried, to facilitate reaching the fistula and the possibility of transvenous embolization should not be thwarted by venous thrombosis.

    Cerebellomedullary compression in recessive craniometaphyseal dysplasia (1996)
    Springer
    Neuroradiology 38 (1996), S. S193 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1920
    Keywords: Key words Craniometaphyseal dysplasia ; Skeletal dysplasia ; Basilar invagination ; Magnetic resonance imaging ; Posterior cranial fossa

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Craniometaphyseal dysplasia (CMD) is a very rare disorder of bone remodelling characterised by sclerosis of the skull base, vault and facial bones and metaphyseal splaying of tubular bones. The recessive form appears to be more severe than the dominant. Cranial nerve deficits have been reported in infancy and early childhood in a few patients, but the long-term history of recessive CMD is not well documented. We report cerebellomedullary compression in a girl with recessive CMD recognised at 14 years because of progressive truncal ataxia. MRI revealed backward angulation of the thickened clivus, narrowing of the foramen magnum and upward deviation of the cerebellum by a markedly thickened occipital squama, tonsillar herniation and obliteration of the infratentorial cerebrospinal fluid spaces. Posterior cranial fossa decompression resulted in marked improvement of the ataxia. Compression of posterior cranial fossa structures has to be considered in the natural history and management of CMD.
