title: Percutaneous transvenous coil embolization of a type 4 sagittal sinus dural arteriovenous fistula: case report.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To present an alternative endovascular therapy for a Type 4 sagittal sinus dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF).
  
  
  METHODS
  A 74-year-old man presented with right facial paresthesias. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an enlarged left parasagittal cortical vein adjacent to the superior sagittal sinus. Angiography demonstrated a Type 4 sagittal sinus DAVF.
  
  
  METHODS
  The DAVF was cured using percutaneous transvenous coil embolization.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This case represents the first report in which a sagittal sinus DAVF was cured using a percutaneous transvenous endovascular approach.
