Ultrasound Diagnosis of a Temporal Artery Aneurysm

Ultrasound Diagnosis of a Temporal Artery Aneurysm Superficial temporal artery aneurysms (STAA) are rare, almost always post traumatic, and their diagnosis can be challenging. When a middle aged man presented with a gradually enlarging non-pulsatile left fronto-temporal artery mass we were able to make a diagnosis of STAA using ultrasonography as well as confirm its resolution later following spontaneous thrombosis of the aneurysm. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal for Vascular Ultrasound SAGE

Abstract

Superficial temporal artery aneurysms (STAA) are rare, almost always post traumatic, and their diagnosis can be challenging. When a middle aged man presented with a gradually enlarging non-pulsatile left fronto-temporal artery mass we were able to make a diagnosis of STAA using ultrasonography as well as confirm its resolution later following spontaneous thrombosis of the aneurysm.
