AB  - OBJECTIVE: To explore the efficacies of embolization in the treatment of 
      nongalenic cerebral arteriovenous fistula (NCAVF). METHODS: The clinical data of 
      16 NCAVF patients (14 from Department of Neurointerventional Medicine, Beijing 
      Tiantan Hospital and 2 from Department of Neurosurgery, Second Municipal Hospital 
      of Yulin) undergoing embolization from April 2008 to October 2014 were analyzed 
      retrospectively. Clinical and imaging follow-ups were conducted. RESULTS: Among 
      them, 6 patients were embolized with coils alone and the remainder coil plus Onyx 
      glue. The digital subtraction angiography (DSA) images obtained immediately after 
      embolization showed that complete (n = 12), near-complete (n = 2) and staged (n = 
      2) occlusions of NCAVFs were achieved. One patient recurred during an imaging 
      follow-up period of 3-24 months. All symptoms and signs were relieved after 
      embolization during a clinical follow-up period of 3-38 months. CONCLUSION: 
      Embolization with coil or coil-assisted Onyx embolization is both feasible and 
      efficacious for NCAVF. Using coils helps to reduce the velocity of blood flow and 
      assists Onyx in embolizing fistulas in patients with high-flow NCAVF.
