Abstract
The term dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) incorporates a wide variety of durally based vascular lesions occurring in different locations, at different ages with characteristics that vary between demographic groups. This chapter will review intracranial DAVF occurring in the adult population with key information summarized and highlighted.
