MENDES, Carolina Lobo et al. Superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm. Angiol Cir Vasc [online]. 2017, vol.13, n.3, pp.59-61. ISSN 1646-706X.

Pseudoaneurysms of the superficial temporal artery are uncommon but mainly result secondary to blunt or penetrating trauma of the frontotemporal region of the head. The authors report a clinical case of a young male with a false aneurysm of superficial temporal artery. Five weeks before he had a blunt trauma of the head. The authors did surgical resection via proximal and distal artery ligation.
