Objective To evaluate use of transarterial endovascular embolization in 10 consecutive pa-tients with DAVFs of lateral sinus. Methods A six-vessel cerebral diagnostic angiography was performed in each of the patients. All the patients underwent superselective angiography and transarterial endovascular em-bolization with N-butyl cyanoacrylate ( NBCA ) or polyvinyl alcohol ( PVA ) particle. Six patients received 3 to 6 months angiographic follow-up. Results Ten patients undergone 16 procedures and 23 supplying arteries were embolized with NBCA glue ( in 8) and PVA particle ( in 2 ). Eight patients experienced anatomic and cli-nical cure. Two patients achieved clinical cure despite the presence of a small residual lesion on *** the 4 patients with pulsatile tinnitus and vascular bruit were ceased immediately after endovascular proce-dures. Pulsatile tinnitus recurred in one patient 2 months after partial embolization and disappeared after a sec-ond therapy. There was no complication. Conclusion Transarterial endovascular embolization is a safe, ef-fective and minimally invasive method for treatment of lateral sinus DA VFs.
