Abstract:
The authors present a case with a 22-year-old man suffering from a 2 pseudoaneurysms at the temporal region following trauma. The second pseudoaneurysm was diagnosed through an astute use of digital subtraction angiography along with ultrasound to the right external carotid artery which was preferred due to the presence of a vascular pathology at the region of the trauma. During surgery, the distal and proximal ends of both aneurysms were ligated and resected. The concomitant pseudoaneurysms and the use of digital subtraction angiography should be kept in mind in such trauma patients to prevent additional surgical interventions.
