    Author: Lv XL, Li YX, Liu AH, Lv M, Jiang P, Zhang JB, Wu ZX.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 2008 Mar; 108(3):588-90. PubMed ID: 18312107.
    Abstract:
    Authors present the case of a patient with a direct carotid artery-cavernous sinus fistula caused by head trauma in whom a self-expanding covered stent was successfully used to obliterate the fistula. However, at the 9-month follow-up an angiogram revealed a complex caroticocavernous fistula that was completely obliterated with Onyx 18 transarterially.
