Abstract
This report describes the early diagnosis, due to an acute increase of jugular venous oxygen saturation occurring 20 hours after trauma, of a traumatic carotid-cavernous sinus fistula after severe head injury. Hyperemia in severe head injury should be treated only after an intracerebral arteriovenous communication has been excluded.Keywords
