    AbstractDural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) of the falx cerebri are extremely rare and may be associated with the falcine sinus. The distal dural supply from the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) comes via the pericallosal artery. This artery can send branches to the free edge of the falx cerebri. DAVF in the falx cerebri solely supplied by the distal dural supply of the ACA may be more suitable for surgical treatment rather than endovascular therapy. We herein describe a rare case of DAVF in the falx cerebri solely supplied by the distal dural supply of the ACA, which was treated with surgical ligation of the draining vein.Copyright © 2024 The Author(s).
