Abstract
An indirect carotid cavernous fistula (CCF) is an abnormal connection between the cavernous sinus and internal or external carotid artery. Indirect CCFs often occur spontaneously, particularly in the setting of vascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and atherosclerosis. Microvascular ischemic nerve palsies (NPs) share these vascular risk factors. However, to date, no temporal relationship between microvascular ischemic NP and indirect CCF occurring sequentially has been reported. We describe the cases of 64- and 73-year-old women who developed indirect CCFs within 1-2 weeks after spontaneous resolution of a microvascular ischemic 4th NP. Both patients had complete resolution and an asymptomatic period between the 4th NP and CCF. This case highlights the shared pathophysiology and risk factors between microvascular ischemic NPs and CCFs, and emphasizes that CCFs should be kept in the differential diagnosis for red eye or recurrent diplopia in patients with previous microvascular ischemic NP.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
