Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVF), particularly those with cortical venous drainage such as Cognard Type III, pose significant risks for intracranial haemorrhage and neurological deficits. This case-based perspective emphasizes the critical role of early, individualized physical therapy in managing post-haemorrhagic motor and functional impairments. Highlighting the complexities of rehabilitation in unstable vascular pathologies, this report underscores the value of physiotherapy care and contributes to the limited literature guiding neurorehabilitation strategies for DAVF patient.
