A Longitudinal Study of a Chinese Man Presenting with Non-Fluent/Agrammatic Variant of Primary Progressive Aphasia.

abstract：:A carotid-jugular fistula is a direct communication between the carotid artery and the jugular vein. Both congenital and spontaneous internal carotid-jugular fistulas are extremely rare. We describe the first case of successful endovascular treatment for a congenital internal carotid-jugular fistula. We report a 64-ye...
