Abstract:
Objective To explore the role and application value of Xper Guide (Philips Angiography Software)-guided ophthalmic vein puncture in embolization of dural arteriovenous fistula in cavernous sinus.
Methods The clinical data of 3 patients with dural arteriovenous fistula in the cavernous sinus region treated in Central South Hospital of Wuhan University from August 2017 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were punctured through the superior ophthalmic vein under the guidance of Xper Guide.
Results Three patients were successfully punctured. The dural arteriovenous fistula in the cavernous sinus was cured by one-time embolization.
Conclusion Xper Guide guided superior ophthalmic vein puncture can accurately assist supraorbital puncture of the superior ophthalmic vein, guide the operation path, and has certain clinical application value.
