Spontaneous closure of dural arteriovenous fistulas: report of three cases and review of the literature.

A Luciani¹, E Houdart, C Mounayer, J P Saint Maurice, J J Merland.

Abstract

SUMMARY: Three cases of spontaneously closing dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are presented, and 11 previously published cases are reviewed. On the basis of clinical and angiographic data, two types of spontaneously regressing dural AVFs are distinguished: posttraumatic and spontaneous. In all cases, the explanation for spontaneous closure is unknown. Some authors have hypothesized that the thrombosis of the draining sinus could be involved. We report three cases of spontaneous dural AVF closure with conservation of sinus patency.
