This study reports the first ophthalmic case of a superficial temporal artery aneurysm found during surgery. Ophthalmologists should consider this rare condition in diagnosing pulsatile, tender temporal arteries, particularly after trauma.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Ophthalmology
  • Neurology

Background:

  • Superficial temporal artery aneurysms are rare vascular conditions.
  • Aneurysms in this location can present with varied symptoms.
  • Differential diagnosis for temporal artery pathologies is crucial.

Observation:

  • A histopathologically-confirmed superficial temporal artery aneurysm was identified during surgical exploration.
  • The aneurysm presented as a pulsatile and tender mass in the temporal region.

Findings:

  • This case represents the first documented instance of a superficial temporal artery aneurysm within ophthalmic literature.
  • The aneurysm was definitively diagnosed through surgical and histopathological examination.

Implications:

  • Ophthalmologists should include superficial temporal artery aneurysms in their differential diagnosis for patients presenting with pulsatile and tender temporal arteries.
  • A history of trauma should raise suspicion for this condition.
  • Early recognition and diagnosis are essential for appropriate management and to prevent potential complications.
