Abstract

Pseudoaneurysm of the superficial temporal artery is rare in children and is frequently a result of direct facial trauma. Conventional management has included surgical ligation and resection and more recently endovascular embolization to prevent complications including local pain, headache, facial disfigurement and bleeding. We report a unique case of a US-guided percutaneous thrombin injection for the treatment of a post-traumatic superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm in a child.
