case_images: In 2021, a computed tomography angiography showed subcutaneous right parieto-occipital dilated vessels representing an arteriovenous fistula between parietal branches of the right superficial temporal artery and branches of the right occipital artery to the right superficial temporal vein [Figure 1].

case_images: The fistula was embolized using coils and PHIL liquid embolic fluid through micro-catheter direct percutaneous puncture; additionally, proximal right superficial temporal and occipital arteries selective embolizations with coils were carried out, achieving occlusion of the fistula and afferent arteries [Figure 2].
