Abstract

Dural sinus malformation in children are extremely rare and rarely reported in the literature The most common clinical presentation is macrocrania, seizures, psychomotor delay, intracranial hemorrhage, congestive heart failure and brain ischemia. Early recognition of these lesions is essential to prevent brain injury for ischemia and intracranial hypertension. We present two case of DSM in 4 months childrens were successfully treated by endovascular procedure reaching the goal of the treatment that is to obliterate the arterial portion of the fistula while preserving cerebral venous drainage.
