To the best of our knowledge, we hereby report the first high-flow cauda equina radicular arteriovenous fistula. The accurate differentiation of cauda equina radicular arteriovenous fistula from filum terminale arteriovenous fistulas, while challenging, is important to avoid treatment-related complications. Careful preoperative planning, the use of specialized endovascular and surgical techniques, and meticulous postoperative care can ensure the safe and complete disconnection of high-flow cauda equina radicular arteriovenous fistulas.
