The clinical data and imaging features of CT, MR and selective angiogram of these patients were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>One week after treatment with embolization, the clinical symptoms of the 17 patients were remitted, and optic cacophony, nystagmus, exophthalmos and dropsy of conjunctiva disappeared. Two patients manifested surgical complications, one patient died. Sixteen patients survived. They were all followed up for more than 2 years, which showed one patient had handicap in movement, and in one patient the signs and symptoms of traumatic carotid-cavernous fistulas reoccurred 2 months after treatment.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The detachable balloon and/or coil embolization is safe and reliable.
