Abstract

We report here a case to illustrate the potential intraoperative multimodal monitoring options available for safe ligation of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF). The success of microsurgical treatment depends on the correct identification of the arterial feeder and monitoring the functional integrity of the corticospinal tract.
