Abstract
The posterior condylar vein is an emissary vein that connects the extracranial and
intracranial venous systems through the posterior condylar canal (PCC). Dural arteriovenous
fistulas (DAVF) of the PCC are rare, and only seven cases have been reported. Transvenous
embolization (TVE) is the first-line treatment for PCC DAVF and is predominantly performed
through the internal jugular vein. Herein, we report a case of PCC DAVF treated with
TVE through the deep cervical vein. This is the first case report of a PCC DAVF treated
with TVE through the deep cervical vein.
