“…Results are very encouraging and reproducible, so the measurement of jugular venous oxygen saturation has become almost routine for the management of head injuries [ 4,5]. It has been reported that SjVO 2 catheters have, incidentally, helped in diagnosing carotid‐cavernous fistulae [ 6–9]. To our knowledge, this is the first time that SjVO 2 measurement has been used for the evaluation of successful embolization of a post‐traumatic arterio‐venous fistula.…”

The management of surgical embolization of a post-traumatic carotid-cavernous fistula is reported in this study. The procedure was successfully performed with the aid of a fibreoptic intravascular catheter, which was monitoring continuously the changes of the jugular venous oxygen saturation. Jugular venous oxygen saturation monitoring effectively confirmed the success of embolization without the need for intraoperative angiography, by manifesting an abrupt return of oxygen saturation from arterial to normal venous values immediately after embolization.

“…The diagnosis is based on clinical history as well as physical and radiological examinations. The gold-standard diagnostic test is selective digital angiography of the carotid artery, disclosing the size and the fistula outflow, along with brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), angio-computed tomographic scanning (angio-CT scan), saturation of the jugular vein bulb, and transcranial Doppler as adjuvant diagnostic tests 3 11 12 13 14 .…”

Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are an uncommon pathology in current neurosurgical practice. Furthermore, they generally present a challenge to the neurosurgeon because of both their deep location and the major neurovascular structures that surround them. CCFs consist of a vascular anomaly in which blood flows from meningeal branches of the internal and external carotid arteries, or directly from the internal carotid artery, into the venous circulation around and in the cavernous sinus. Twelve patients with direct and indirect/dural CCFs who underwent examination and treatment between July 2003 and February 2006 are reported here. All patients of this retrospective evaluation were symptomatic at the time of diagnosis, which was confirmed by cerebral angiography. The patients were treated by endovascular approaches and the CCFs were occluded. From our evaluation, we concluded that the endovascular procedure is safe, effective and minimally invasive in patients with CCF.
