However, a standard therapeutic protocol for CPSVS has not been elucidated. With the advantage of minimally invasive techniques,transcatheter embolization has been used to treat CPSVS. The condition is challenging to manage, especially in patients with large or multiple shunts, through which rapid blood flow can cause ectopic embolism. Here, we describe a case of CPSVS with a large shunt that was successfully treated with balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration with interlocking detachable coils.展开更多
