Résumé
A 49-year-old man flight attendant with a past medical history of Roux-en-Y bypass and massive weight loss 18 months prior was referred for surgical management of a superficial temporal artery aneurysm. Imaging confirmed the diagnosis. Intraoperatively a 1 cm fusiform aneurysm was identified with numerous feeding side branch vessels. The aneurysm was suture ligated and excised in toto with pathologic analysis showing involvement of all vessel layers. This case highlights a rare true aneurysm of the superficial temporal artery and aberrant anatomy of multiple side branches feeding the aneurysm and complicating dissection and excision.
