Cerebral and peripheral effects of laser needle-stimulation.

abstract：:Congenital dural arteriovenous fistulas have been infrequently described in pediatric population and they generally affect the transverse, sigmoid, straight or sagittal sinuses. Congenital carotid-cavernous fistulas in infancy are considered very rare and to our knowledge, only four cases have been reported in literat...
