Carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCF) are classified in direct (Barrow A) and indirect. The direct comunication between the cavernous segment of the internal carotid artery and the cavernous sinus defines direct CCF. In the present case, is described a 51-year-old female patient, diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage through head tomography. The patient underwent an agiographic study, wen was identified a large dissecant aneurysm in the right internal carotid artery and a direct CCF with early drainage into the ophthalmic vein and inferior petrous sinus, manifesting paralysis of the third cranial nerve.
