Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Possible complications of parotid gland surgery are numerous, just as the reasons for aneurysms of the superficial temporal artery. The occurrence of such an aneurysm as a consequence of parotidectomy, however, has so far only been published once. Here, we report of an aneurysm of the superficial temporal artery following parotid gland surgery. It presented as a pulsating mass in the preauricular region. Combining clinical examination, duplex ultrasound, and CT scan, the diagnosis was readily established and treated with a circumscribed revision at low risk and without complications.
