Abstract
Intraorbital AV fistulas are quite uncommon, so they are a challenge for most neurointerventional teams. Since a venous approach has shown better results, it is the preferred approach for physicians, but it is not always feasible. A direct puncture of the superior ophthalmic vein (SOV) as shown in this case is a safe and quick alternative in such cases, providing a definitive solution for the patient.
