Abstract
- Bilateral carotid-cavernous fistula are much less frequent and these double lesions are considered as a puzzling therapeutic problem. A case of bilateral traumatic carotid-cavernous fistula was confirmed by bilateral carotid angiography and was managed by method of muscle piece embolization without complications. Neuro-ophthalmological deficits improved progressively except minor bruit. We reviewed bilateral carotid-cavernous fistula in the literatures and discussed the surgical method.
