    Abstract:
    Spontaneous carotid cavernous fistulas are a rare entity occurring more frequently in middle aged women. The authors report a case of a spontaneous carotid cavernous fistula in an elderly woman resulting in glaucoma of hard management. After surgical embolization of the fistula, the symptoms regressed and the intraocular pressure moved back to regular levels.
