%X It is difficult to say that cortical venous reflux is directly related with intracerebral hemorrhage in dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) because the cortical vein anatomically exists in the subarachnoid space [1]. Hemorrhage is the most serious event in cranial DAVF. Cortical venous reflux (CVR) has been known as a prognostic risk factor for hemorrhage in cranial DAVF [2]. Hemorrhage risk is related to lesion location, sex and cortical venous reflux [3]. Venous drainage pattern, especially the presence of cortical venous reflux, is a significant factor predicting intracranial hemorrhage from DAVF [4]. Annual hemorrhage rate of cranial DAVF is about 5% when there is cortical venous reflux
