枕动脉假性动脉瘤:一种罕见的头皮肿胀

阅读:1

Abstract

Traumatic pseudoaneurysm occurring in face and temple is commonly reported to occur in superficial temporal artery, and so far only four cases have reported involvement of the occipital artery. We report a case of 25-year-old male patient presented to us with a pulsatile swelling in the occipital region following a trauma at the same site 5 years ago. A CT angiogram revealed the pseudoaneurysm of the left occipital artery and was surgically excised after ligation of proximal and distal parts along the course of the occipital artery.
