Dural arteriovenous fistulas of the skull base commonly present with pulsatile tinnitus. In our experience, transvenous embolization of dural arteriovenous fistulas of the skull base represents a safe and effective treatment modality due to its precision in treatment of the site of convergence of all feeding arteries and the low risk of ischemic complications. We present a case of an adult patient who presented to our institution with pulsatile tinnitus several months following a motor vehicle accident. Cerebral angiography demonstrated a dural arteriovenous fistula at the junction of the posterior condylar vein and suboccipital venous plexus supplied by branches of the vertebral artery, occipital artery, and ascending pharyngeal artery. In this operative video we demonstrate this technique and provide an in-depth discussion of our treatment decision-making process and the anatomical considerations involved in treating this lesion.

The hypoglossal canal contains a venous plexus that connects the inferior petrous sinus, condylar vein, jugular vein and paravertebral plexus. The venous plexus is one of the venous drainage routes of the posterior skull base. Only a few cases of dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) involving the hypoglossal canal have been reported. We describe three cases (a 62-year-old female, a 52-year-old male, and an 83-year-old male) of dural AVFs involving the hypoglossal canal. Symptoms were pulse-synchronous bruit in two cases and proptosis/chemosis in one. All dural AVFs were mainly fed by the ipsilateral ascending pharyngeal artery. Two of three dural AVFs involving the hypoglossal canal mainly drained through the anterior condylar confluence into the inferior petrosal sinus retrogradely with antegrade drainage through the lateral condylar vein. The other one drained through the lateral and posterior condylar veins into the suboccipital cavernous sinus. All dural AVFs were completely occluded by selective transvenous embolization without any complications, and the symptoms disappeared within one week in all cases. Dural AVFs involving the hypoglossal canal can be successfully treated by selective transvenous embolization with critical evaluation of venous anatomy in each case.
