The value of long-term clinical follow-up for cases of spontaneous carotid cavernous fistula.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Many anatomical anomalies have the potential to impair the efficacy of endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) and increase the surgical morbidity. By virtual magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) endoscopy, the real endoscopic view into the ventricular system can be simulated. It was the objective of the present ...
