Descriere

Dural cavernous sinus fistulas (DCSFs) are benign vascular diseases consisting in an arteriovenous shunt at the cavernous sinus that if misdiagnosed can lead to potentially serious ophthalmologic complications. This volume provides a complete guide to the diagnosis and minimal invasive treatment of DCSFs. After sections on anatomy and classification, etiology and pathogenesis of DCSFs, the symptomatology of the disease is described in detail. The role of modern imaging techniques in the diagnosis of DCSFs is then addressed. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) remains the gold standard for clinical decision-making; here, full consideration is given to both, conventional 2D DSA and rotational 3D angiography. Recent technological advances in this field such as Dual Volume (DV) imaging and angiographic computed tomography (ACT) are considered as well. Due attention is further paid to the use of computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound. Finally, the therapeutic management of DCSFs with emphasis on various transvenous occlusion techniques are discussed in depth. This well-illustrated volume will be invaluable to all who may encounter DCSF in their clinical practice.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
“This textbook is clearly the best book or monograph ever written concerning the history, etiology, pathophysiology, radiology, management, and neurosurgical treatment of carotid cavernous sinus fistulas and dural arteriovenous malformations. … This book is made for angiographers, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroophthalmologists, and any student or physician interested in neurology & neurosurgery.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, September, 2013)
“This is a very special book: it addresses a very difficult, peculiar topic yet special; special because the topic is treated with incredible ease, showing the author’s profound knowledge of anatomy, clinical situations and findings, diagnostic procedures and ensuing therapeutic options and end-results. … a ‘must have’ book for all those who deal with this sort of problem: interventional radiologists, neurosurgeons and neurologists, and ‘optional’ for the general radiologist who wants to keep in touch with the advances in this peculiar field of radiology.” (Giampiero Beluffi, Radiologia Medica, Vol. 116, 2011)
“This book describes important historical considerations, and succinctly describes the anatomical, pathological and imaging features of the DCSFs. … The book is excellently well illustrated with high quality numerous informative CT, MR, and DSA images. It provides a secure platform from which neurological specialists can build their understanding of the considered conditions and their potential treatment options. … present a very nice summary of this interesting neurovascular topic. Overall the book is an excellent addition to the current literature.”­­­ (Waleed Alhajii, European Radiology, Vol. 21, 2011)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Dural cavernous sinus fistulas (DCSFs) represent a benign vascular disease, consisting in an arteriovenous shunt at the cavernous sinus. In the absence of spontaneous resolution, the fistula may lead to eye redness, swelling, proptosis, chemosis, ophthalmoplegia and visual loss. Although modern imaging techniques have improved the diagnostic, patients with low-flow DCSFs are still misdiagnosed. These patients can get erroneously treated for infections and inflammation for months or years and are at risk of visual loss. Early and proper diagnosis helps to avoid deleterious clinical course of the disease. This volume provides a complete guide to clinical and radiological diagnosis as well as to therapeutic management of DCSF with emphasis on modern minimal invasive treatment options. It commences with an informative description of relevant anatomy. After sections on the classification, etiology and pathogenesis of DCSF, the clinical symptomatology of the disease is described in detail. The role of modern non-invasive imaging tools is then addressed with the use of computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound. Intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography (DSA), although invasive, remains the gold standard and is mandatory for clinical decision-making and strategy in endovascular treatment. Hence, a throughout consideration is given to both, 2D-DSA and 3D rotational angiography, including recent technological advancements such as Dual Volume (DV) imaging and angiographic computed tomography (ACT). After a short section on arteriovenous hemodynamics, the therapeutic management of DCSFs is described in detail. In particular, various transvenous techniques, required for successful endovascular occlusion of DCSF, are discussed in depth. This well-illustrated volume will be invaluable to all who may encounter DCSF in their clinical practice.
