Ss. Kaplan et al., INCIDENTALLY DISCOVERED ARTERIOVENOUS MALFORMATION OF THE ANTERIOR FOSSA DURA, British journal of neurosurgery, 8(6), 1994, pp. 755-759
Dural arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare vascular abnormaliti
es that most frequently involve the cavernous, transverse or sigmoid s
inus. Anterior cranial fossa dural AVMs are uncommon. We report the cl
inical, radiological and surgical features of an incidentally discover
ed anterior fossa dural AVM. The literature regarding the anatomy and
clinical presentation of this lesion is reviewed.
