Core Tip |
This case reports a diploic vein (DV) as a treatable cause of pulsatile tinnitus (PT), which was confirmed by ligation. Thorough examinations, such as computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance (MR) including four-dimensional flow and digital subtraction angiography, were performed preoperatively to assess the possible venous, arterial and neoplastic causes of the PT; and four-dimensional flow MR was re-examined to show the hemodynamic changes two weeks after ligation. We analyzed the manifestations of the DV, discussed the common features of venous PT in combination with our previous work and the literature, and proposed a potentially efficient diagnosis and treatment strategy for venous PT. |
