Abstract
Results: Endovascular procedures were performed in a single session in 10 cases and in two staged sessions in 3 cases. There was no difficulty in maneuverability of the SM. Successful selective catheterization was achieved in 26 of 27 target lesions. Immediately after embolization, angiography showed complete occlusion in 10 cases and marked reduction in 3 cases. During 40.9 months of mean follow-up, 12 cases showed complete occlusion and one case showed a small residual shunt on MRI. Procedure-related complications of spontaneous thrombosis of the affected sinus were observed in one case. There were no cases of recurrence or exacerbation during follow-up.
