    AbstractA 20-year-old man suffered from a swelling with a painless but cosmetic problem in the right temporal region. Pseudoaneurysm of the superficial temporal artery is rare. It typically occurs after blunt trauma to the temporal region and presents as a painless, preauricular and pulsatile mass during the following 2-6 weeks. The diagnosis is made simply by physical examination and ultrasound. Surgery under local anesthesia is a very effective treatment.
