Background: Dural fistula to the cavernous sinus (DFCS) is an infrequent pathology that consists in the anomalous communication between the meningeal branches of the internal carotid artery (ICA) and/or the external carotid artery (ECA) and the cavernous sinus.Aim: To perform a systematic review to evaluate clinical and imaging findings in DFCS, and current indications for treatment.Methods: A literature search was performed in several medical databases using the keywords "intracranial dural fistula", "carotid-cavernous fistula", "endovascular treatment", associated with "outcome"; resulting articles were assessed by considering factors such as: number of patients treated, type of material used, complications, and type of image technique used for diagnosis.Results: 33 articles were selected, yielding: clinical and imaging: The symptoms are basically related to the type of venous drainage
