ABSTRACT
A false aneurysm with typical history, clinical and radiographic findings, and histological picture is reported. The absence of enlargement since onset and the absence of bruit were atypical. The latter was probably due to the thick wall of the aneurysm. False aneurysm should be part of the differential diagnosis of swelling of the jaws. Aneurysms should be treated surgically because of the potential for progressive enlargement with danger of spontaneous rupture.
