title: [Venous bypass ICA-MCA used in a case of traumatic carotid-cavernous fistula].
abstract: The reported case was a boy aged 13 with, traumatic carotido-cavernous fistula admitted to hospital with right exophthalmos and paresis of right abducens nerve. After two failed trials of endo-vascular closure of the fistula it was decided to use venous bypass ICA-MCA (internal carotid artery in its extracranial part--M1 segment of middle cerebral artery) for bypassing the fistula. This made possible closure of the fistula with regression of neurological symptoms.
