A, Selective angiogram of the right seventh intercostal artery showing the inferior SdAVF with a descending venous drainage.
B, Selective angiogram of the right fifth intercostal artery showing the superior SdAVF with an ascending venous drainage.
C, Selective angiogram of the right fourth intercostal artery after treatment of the inferior SdAVF. The venous drainage changed from exclusively ascending to both ascending and descending. The upper thoracic anterior spinal artery is visualized (arrow).
D, Superselective catheterization of the meningeal feeders from the fifth intercostal artery before injection of acrylic glue.
E, Casts of n-BCA at the level of T7 (arrow) and T5 (arrowhead), involving the origin of the draining veins, which enabled definite cure.
