Abstract
• 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.
