ABSTRACT
We present a case of left superficial temporal artery aneurysm in a sixteen year old male patient who presented six weeks after sustaining a blunt trauma to the left temporal region with a pulsatile non tender mass. Duplex study was performed demonstrating a false aneurysm arising from the temporal artery. Surgical excision was performed and diagnosis was confirmed. Despite its rarity, superficial temporal artery aneurysm should be considered when temporal head mass is evaluated
