Abstract.
Posterior fossa dural arteriovenous fistulae in children are rare lesions that are difficult to treat effectively. We report a case of a 2-year-old girl with such a fistula, who presented clinically with progressive neurological deficit. The lesion was treated by endovascular occlusion, resulting in radiological and clinical cure.
