In this article, we report three cases of dural arteriovenous fistulas of the hypoglossal canal treated via transvenous approach. We also perform a review of the literature on the endovascular management of this type of lesions with particular attention to the dangerous extracranial-intracranial anastomoses that can occur at this level.
