Aneurisma verdadeiro pós-traumático de artéria temporal

Abstract: ResumoOs aneurismas de artéria temporal pós-traumático são eventos raros. Geralmente, são pseudoaneurismas. Como a causa mais frequente são ferimentos contusos, deve-se investigar todo paciente que possuir nodulação pulsátil na região da artéria temporal. O paciente apresentava protuberância pulsátil em região frontal direita há quatro meses, após queda de objeto pontiagudo, e o eco-Doppler evidenciou dilatação aneurismática. Assim, foi indicada sua excisão, que foi realizada com sucesso. O exame anatomopatoló… Show more

“…Angiotomography is convenient because it is noninvasive, more accessible than arteriography, and offers similar results for diagnosis of an AVF. 8 An additional factor is that angiotomography enables assessment of adjacent structures, which is important for planning surgery.…”

“…There are some possible differential diagnoses for traumatic AVF, such as arterial occlusion, dissection, and formation of pseudoaneurysms or true aneurysms. 8 Arteriovenous fistulas of the superficial temporal artery have an estimated incidence 9 of 0.5 to 2.0% of cases; while incidence of traumatic pseudoaneurysms varies 10 from 4 to 13%. In the present case, although the trauma was blunt and the incidence of pseudoaneurysms exceeds that of AVF, angiotomography confirmed the diagnosis of AVF.…”
