Ophthalmic Artery Aneurysm: Flow-Induced Intracranial and Intraorbital (“Peripheral”) Ophthalmic Artery Aneurysms, Associated with a Tentorial Dural Arteriovenous Fistula, Supplied by the Ophthalmic Artery; Endovascular Treatment of the Dural Arteriovenous Fistula and One Aneurysm; and Conservative Management of the Remaining Ophthalmic Artery Aneurysms
Abstract:A 77-year-old male patient was admitted with a spontaneous ventricular hemorrhage, graded as Hunt and Hess III. DSA revealed a rightsided tentorial dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) with a large varix of a draining vein as the source of this ventricular hemorrhage.

Three aneurysms were found on the OA: one located in the intracranial OA segment, one in
