Summary: This case report highlights a rare phenomenon of SDAVF with intradural double draining veins, which was successfully treated with surgery. The patient's symptoms improved gradually postoperatively, as demonstrated by significant resolution of edema and enhancement on MRI.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the outcomes of different dural closure techniques for intracranial meningiomas. The results showed that nonsutured dural graft reconstruction and sutured dural repair had similar postoperative outcomes. Nonsutured grafts may be sufficient for most meningioma resections, resulting in decreased operative time and cost savings.

Summary: Meningioma mimics are relatively common, often presenting with features like bone erosion, dural displacement sign, marked T2 hypointensity, marked T2 hyperintensity, and absence of dural tail. The most common mimic lesions include hemangiopericytomas, lymphomas, and schwannomas.

Summary: Neurovascular sonography serves as a valuable tool for screening and follow-up of dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) in the transverse sinuses/sigmoid sinuses. This case report presents a rare case of bilateral dAVFs diagnosed through neurovascular ultrasonography, which was subsequently confirmed by further imaging. The findings highlight the importance of neurovascular sonography in the diagnosis of dAVFs in the transverse sinuses/sigmoid sinuses.

Summary: A study using the CONDOR registry found that dural arteriovenous fistula-related hemorrhage had relatively lower morbidity and mortality rates in patients compared to other arterialized cerebrovascular lesions. Age and anticoagulant use were identified as risk factors for poor outcomes, while the subtype of hemorrhage and venous shunting pattern did not significantly affect the outcomes.

Summary: This study examined the risk factors associated with the recurrence of cranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) after treatment. The study found that the recurrence rate of dAVFs after angiographic cure was 4.5%. Risk factors for recurrence included tentorial location, cortical venous drainage, and deep cerebral venous drainage.

Summary: This article presents a case of successful Onyx embolization of an ethmoidal dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) using the transvenous retrograde pressure cooker technique (RPCT), with emphasis on the technical nuances of the RPCT and important tips to avoid periprocedural complications.

Summary: The vascular supply of the meninges is provided by a series of named arteries, while this case represents the first report in the literature of a dural arteriovenous fistula with a lateral distal posterior cerebral artery supplying the meninges.

Summary: This study identified C4BPA and C1QA as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of SDAVF, and revealed that complement pathway activation might be one of the molecular mechanisms for venous hypertension myelopathy.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical and radiological data of 38 patients diagnosed with lumbosacral spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas. It found that the dilated filum terminale vein or radicular vein is an important diagnostic feature of these fistulas, and identified the associated neurological symptoms in these patients.

Summary: Direct embolization through feeders from pial arteries may increase the risk of ischemic complications in patients with tentorial dural arteriovenous fistula (TDAVF). Advancing microcatheter tips close to the fistula point and preventing embolizer flow back into the pial artery are crucial for successful embolization. Balloon-assisted embolization could be considered as a potential option for treating TDAVFs with feeders from pial arteries in the future.

Summary: Based on data from 11 international centers, a study found that the Cavernous Hemangioma Exclusively Endonasal Resection (CHEER) staging system can predict surgical outcomes of primary benign orbital tumors (PBOTs). In summary, the study concluded that endoscopic surgery is an effective approach for treating PBOTs and the proposed staging system is valuable for outcomes reporting.
