High grade torcular DAVF: Technical aspects to safely sacrifice the straight sinus
High grade torcular DAVFs can be challenging to treat, particularly when there is retrograde flow in the straight sinus and deep venous system. We describe the technical steps to safely sacrifice the straight sinus, including preoperative MRI findings, arterial and venous cerebral flow assessment and key points for endovascular treatment.
