Abstract

Tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are uncommon, complex fistulas located between the leaves of the tentorium cerebelli with a specific anatomic and clinical presentation characterized by high hemorrhagic risk. We present a rare case of a medial tentorial DAVF successfully managed via transarterial embolization using SQUID liquid polymer.
