CCFs are frequently encountered in patients with traumatic skull base fractures. In this report, we present one such case caused by two head traumas. Computed tomography and digital subtraction angiography confirmed that this CCF arose from posterior communicating artery of the internal carotid artery, which is not included in the traditional Barrow et al’s categorization. The possible mechanisms include laceration of dural mater of posterior clinoid process and laceration or pseudoaneurysm formation of posterior communicating artery. This case was successfully treated with endovascular coil embolization.Keywords: carotid-cavernous fistulas, cavernous sinus, CCF, PComA, posterior communicating arteryDu BZhang MLiu QLShen JWang YYDove Medical Pressarticlecarotid-cavernous fistulas (CCF)posterior communicating artery (PCom A)cavernous sinusangioarchitectureNeurosciences.
