  • Journal:

  • Objective:

    To describe a case of superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm occurring as a rare complication of parotid surgery (to the authors' knowledge, the first such case reported), to review the aetiology of superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm, and to highlight pseudoaneurysm as a cause of facial swelling after parotidectomy.

    Method:

    A literature search of the PubMed and EMBASE databases was carried out using the Medical Subject Heading key words ‘superficial temporal artery’, ‘aneurysm’, ‘pseudoaneurysm’ and ‘parotid’.

    Result:

    No previously reported cases of superficial temporal artery aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm following parotid surgery were identified.

    Conclusion:

    Pseudoaneurysm of the superficial temporal artery is a rare complication of parotid surgery which has not previously been reported.
