J. S. Kakkasseril, T. A. Tomsick, J. A. Arbaugh and J. J. Cranley
A patient had carotid cavernous fistula following Fogarty catheter
thrombectomy. The patient was successfully treated by percutaneous
detachable balloon closure of the fistula. Intraoperative angiography may
be helpful in detecting unsuspected injuries of the intracranial carotid
artery following thrombectomy.
