A rare case of posttraumatic trigeminal-cavernous fistula was successfully treated with Onyx embolization. This case highlights the importance of tailored treatment for complex fistulas involving persistent trigeminal artery anatomy.

Area of Science:

Vascular Surgery
Interventional Neuroradiology
Neuroscience

Background:

Persistent trigeminal artery (PTA) is the most common embryonic connection between the vertebrobasilar and carotid circulations.
Posttraumatic trigeminal-cavernous fistulas are exceptionally rare in medical literature.

Observation:

A 47-year-old male patient presented with a posttraumatic trigeminal-cavernous fistula.
The fistula involved a unique fistulous orifice and Salzmann type 2 anatomy.

Findings:

The patient was treated using Onyx embolization, a minimally invasive endovascular technique.
Successful occlusion of the fistula was achieved, preserving neurological function.

Implications:

This case underscores the necessity of individualized treatment strategies for complex dural arteriovenous fistulas.
