Traumatic Cerebral Aneurysm Associated with a Contralateral Traumatic Carotid Cavernous Fistula

Abstract: This report documents the management of a traumatic carotid aneurysm (TCA) with a traumatic carotid-cavernous fistula (T-CCF) of the contralateral internal carotid artery (ICA) following a closed head injury. A 38-year-old man presented with severe traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage and pneumocephalus due to a severe head injury. Four months after the accident, the patient presented with clinical symptoms of exophthalmos and retroorbital bruit. Cerebral angiography showed a TCA of the… Show more

“…Cervical ICA pseudoaneurysm is mostly managed by stenting, rarely coil, nactacryl or Onyx-HD embolization due to fragile wall [2,8,[10][11][12]. Traditionally aneurysms are given priority over fistulous closure even if they are clinically silent.…”

“…However this would be requiring anticoagulants postoperative which might interfere in thrombosis of fistula added by coiling. Fuse et al have reported a resembling case scenario in which they operated traumatic CCF first by endovascular coiling followed by contralateral clinoidal ICA aneurysm by trapping [2]. The reason was that, CCF occlusion first confirmed patency of ipsilateral ICA and then trapping of contralateral ICA aneurysm was done so that cross flow from ipsilateral ICA maintained distal flow on contralateral side [2].…”

“…Cavernous sinus-carotid fistula (CCF) is a rare complication of craniofacial injuries, occurring in only 0.17% to 0.27% of cases, according to data reported in the literature. [12] Recent advancements, including new imaging techniques and improved surgical methods, have improved the diagnosis and treatment of CCF. However, its diagnosis and treatment are still major challenges for oral maxillofacial surgeons, because of the low incidence of CCF.…”
