Venous sinus compromise after pre-sigmoid, transpetrosal approach for skull base tumors: A study on the asymptomatic incidence and report of a rare dural arteriovenous fistula as symptomatic manifestation.
TLDR
A retrospective analysis of a series of patients treated by the senior surgeons, who underwent either a posterior petrosectomy or translabyrinthine approach for various skull base tumors, found five patients were discovered post-operatively to have a narrowed or constricted sigmoid sinus ipsilateral to the surgery, whereas anotherFive patients were diagnosed with asymptomatic sinus thrombosis either in the transverse or sigmoids or both.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Incidence and Risk Factors for Sigmoid Venous Thrombosis Following CPA Tumor Resection.
Matthew Shew,Hannah Kavookjian,Kelly Dahlstrom,Thomas Muelleman,James Lin,Paul J. Camarata,Luke Ledbetter,Hinrich Staecker +7 more
TL;DR: Incidence of SVT is significantly underreported and may predispose patients to increase risk for CSF leak and it may not be necessary to treat asymptomatic SVT, according to the findings of this retrospective cohort study.

Natural History of Untreated Transverse/Sigmoid Sinus Thrombosis Following Posterior Fossa Surgery: Case Series and Literature Review.
Alon Orlev,Christopher M. Jackson,Andrew S. Luksik,Tomas Garzon-Muvdi,Wuyang Yang,Wade W. Chien,Sagi Harnof,Rafael J. Tamargo +7 more
TL;DR: It may be reasonable to manage patients with transverse/sigmoid sinus thrombosis following suboccipital craniectomy conservatively in order to avoid the risks associated with anticoagulation in the perioperative period.

Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Arising after Intracranial Surgery in Posterior Fossa of Nondominant Sinus: Two Cases and Literature Review.
Shohei Yokoyama,Ichiro Nakagawa,Masashi Kotsugi,Daisuke Wajima,Takeshi Wada,Kimihiko Kichikawa,Hiroyuki Nakase +6 more
TL;DR: Two patients who each developed a dural AVF after a posterior fossa craniotomy on the side of the nondominant or hypoplastic transverse (TS)-sigmoid (SS) sinuses are described.

TL;DR: Dural venous sinus thrombosis is a relatively understudied complication of vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery and continuing to observe asymptomatic patients did not lead to any adverse events.

TL;DR: More acute petrous angle and shorter IAC to sinus distance are objective anatomic variables associated with pCVST in TL surgical approaches in adults with VS who underwent TL craniectomy.

Experience with 36 surgical cases of petroclival meningiomas.
Madjid Samii,Marcos Tatagiba +1 more
TL;DR: With careful pre-operative evaluation, improved operative approaches and microsurgical techniques the treatment of petroclival meningiomas has been considerably improved.

Perioperative Complications in Acoustic Neuroma (Vestibular Schwannoma) Surgery
TL;DR: Perioperative complications in acoustic neuroma surgery do exist, but this study demonstrated how low the incidence is, and following individualized approaches, depending on tumor size and on the preoperative function of the cranial nerves is the proper way to reach a significant reduction in complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delayed postoperative dural arteriovenous malformations. Report of two cases.
TL;DR: Two cases of dural arteriovenous malformations (AVM's) that developed at the site of previous suboccipital craniectomies are presented andEmbolization is recommended in selected cases where the arterial supply is primarily from the external carotid system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dural sinus thrombosis and pseudotumor cerebri: unexpected complications of suboccipital craniotomy and translabyrinthine craniectomy.
TL;DR: The goal of this study was to document the hazards associated with pseudotumor cerebri resulting from transverse sinus thrombosis after tumor resection, and the status of the transverse and sigmoid sinuses should be documented using MR venography before patients undergo posterior fossa surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dural arteriovenous fistula of the posterior fossa developing after surgical occlusion of the sigmoid sinus : report of five cases
TL;DR: These cases demonstrate that subintimal fibrous thickening a hypertrophied sinus wall secondary to increased intrasinus pressure or sinus thrombosis occurring after sinus occlusion can provoke the development of a dural AVF within the course of a lifetime.
