Abstract
|
|
|
Pseudoaneurysms of the superficial temporal artery are rare lesions. They present as slowly growing pulsating
masses of the face or scalp. The common causes are blunt head trauma, penetrating wounds or interventional
procedures. We report here on a rare case of superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm in a 44-year-old woman
who presented with a pulsating mass, and this mass occurred on the left temporal area 2 weeks after performing a
skin punch biopsy.
