Dural arteriovenous fistula
Dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) are abnormal shunts between dural arteries and veins or venous sinuses of the dura mater. Also the connections may be between pachymeningeal arteries from cortical arteries and veins or sinus from dura mater. There are uncommon pathologic entities, 6-8 % from supr...
