Abstract
Occlusion of 33 carotid-cavernous fistulas in 31 patients using thrombogenic techniques is reported. In 1 patient the carotid artery was occluded previously, in 1 it was occluded deliberately, and with 31 fistulas it was preserved. There was no mortality and virtually no morbidity.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
