Sažetak
Carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is a relatively rare pathology with a low incidence
compared with other vascular pathologies. They can be classified based on hemodynamics as low- or
high-flow fistulas, and anatomically as direct or indirect fistulas. Anatomy of the shunt somewhat dictates
the selection of endovascular treatment, meaning the venous or arterial approach and selection of
embolizing materials. Although there is general agreement as to when to access CCF transvenously or
transarterialy, which depends on the shunt being direct or indirect, there is no uniform agreement on
which occlusion method should be used. Herein, we report a case of an 80-year-old woman treated for
indirect CCF using detachable coils. We also provide a brief review of the literature, including recent
advances in treatment of said entities. In conclusion, selection of both the approach and material used
depends on the operator’s experience and preference.
