Discussion
ocular manifestation
In this patient :
• Proptosis occur gradually in both eye
• Eyelide of patient also be swolen
Discussion
ocular manifestation
In this patient :
• Conjunctival chemosis occurred mostly in temporal of conjunctiva bulbi
• Arterialization of episcleral patient also occurred this patient
Discussion
ocular manifestation
In this patient :
• There are no pulsation detected in this patient indirect CCF
• There was no keratopathy, severe proptosis and trigerminal neuropathy in this patient

Bruit Diplopia
In this patient :
• There are no bruit detected in this patient indirect CCF
• There was limitation in abduction of right eye
Discussion
ocular manifestation
In this patient :
• Funducopic finding in this patient was considered in normal limit
• There is no sensoric sensing complain in trigerminal area of this patient
Discussion
ocular manifestation
Glaucoma
• Occurred in 30-50% direct CCF cases
• Mostly due to direct orbital congestion in association with severe proptosis & chemosis
• Intraocular pressure in most cases is usually somewhat elevated, but some patients experience
intraocular pressure of 50-60mm Hg
In this patient :
• When the patient admitted to our clinic at the first time, the IOP of left eye was
26mmHg but the right eye was still normal limit.
• after 2-weeks following topical antiglaucoma (timolol twice a day), the IOP was
reduced to be 16mmHg.

Discusion
conservative treatment
• manual compression of the ipsilateral cervical carotid artery several times a day for 4–6 weeks
In this patient :
• Caution for CCF from ICA branches Increased risk for developing stroke
due to embolic reflux

Discusion
surgical intervention
• Procedure includes :
• suturing, clipping, or trapping the fistula
• packing the cavernous sinus to occlude the fistula
• sealing the fistula with fascia and glue
• ligating the internal carotid artery
• combination of all these procedures
• Overall success rates have been reported at between 31% and 79%

Discusion
treatment of elevated IOP
• Diagnosis of CCF can be made by some ocular manifestations which was found in our patient.
• The goal of CCF treatment is to completely occlude the fistula while preserving the normal
flow of blood through the internal carotid artery
• conservative management is effective in the treatment of patient with indirect low-flow CCF.
