Abstract
A case report and review of the literature of 16 dural arteriovenous f istulas (DAVFs) involving the superior sagittal sinus region are prese nted. In our case, magnetic resonance angiography detected the DAVF wi th multiple arterial feeding vessels from both external carotid arteri es. The patient was successfully treated endovascularly, with complete occlusion of arterial feeders and a total resolution of symptoms.
