Superficial temporal artery aneurysms (STAA) often result from blunt trauma and are more common in young males. Surgery is the preferred treatment, though local pressure can prevent pseudoaneurysms after trauma.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Trauma Management
  • Cranial Anatomy

Background:

  • Superficial temporal artery aneurysms (STAA) are typically caused by blunt head trauma.
  • These aneurysms are more common in young males than previously reported.

Observation:

  • A case series of four patients (3 males, 1 female) aged 8–30 years with STAA is presented.
  • Three patients underwent surgical excision under local anesthesia.
  • One patient's aneurysm was successfully managed with continuous local pressure.

Findings:

  • Surgical intervention is considered the primary treatment for STAA.
  • Local pressure application is an effective method for preventing pseudoaneurysm formation after blunt temporal trauma.

Implications:

  • Early diagnosis and appropriate management of STAA are crucial.
  • Understanding the etiology and treatment options can improve patient outcomes in traumatic vascular injuries.
