Abstract
The use of a balloon-tipped intra-arterial catheter for occlusion of the carotidcavernous fistula seems to be a simple, effective procedure and its use was without sequela. Treatment of carotidcavernous fistulae by this method is reported in 2 patients.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
