Abstract

Spinal dural arteriovenous fistula is known to possibly complicate lumbar disc surgery. Delayed development of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula also has been reported as a rare complication after lumbar surgery. We report a case of postsurgically developed spinal dural/epidural arteriovenous fistula treated with n-butyl cyanoacrylate.
