We successfully identified a VV within PTVA. Superselective VV angiography showed staining of the thrombosed component and venous return draining into the suboccipital cavernous sinus. In this case, the embolization of the VV proved to be an effective endovascular treatment of PTVA, but the safety of this method is a challenge. Further case studies are required to validate this method, and we hope it will evolve into a new treatment of PTVA.
