To our knowledge, we present the first meta-analysis assessing obliteration rates, outcomes, and complications of TVE for dAVFs. Our analysis highlights the higher (>90%) complete obliteration rates. Large prospective multicenter studies are needed to better define the utility of TVE for noncavernous dAVFs.
