facial nerve injury a complication of superficial Temporal Artery biopsy
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2011Co-Authors: Michael K Yoon, Jonathan C Horton, Timothy J McculleyAbstract:● PURPOSE: To describe 4 patients who sustained facial nerve injury during Temporal Artery biopsy. ● DESIGN: Retrospective, observational case series. ● METHODS: The medical records were reviewed of 4 patients (2 men, 2 women; mean age 72.8 years, range 60 to 87), referred for evaluation of palsy of the frontal branch of the facial nerve following Temporal Artery biopsy. Main outcomes measured were site of incision, length of follow-up, and degree of recovery. ● RESULTS: In all cases, incisions were made in the preauricular region or on the pretrichial temple within 3 cm of the lateral canthal angle. Follow-up ranged from 1 month to over 5 years. No patient recovered completely; 2 had partial return of function, and 2 reported no improvement. ● CONCLUSIONS: Branch facial nerve palsy can occur with Temporal Artery biopsy and is likely to result in permanent disability. In all cases the incision was placed within the known course of the frontal branch of the facial nerve. To prevent this rare complication, we advocate biopsy of the parietal, rather than the frontal, branch of the superficial Temporal Artery. (Am J Ophthalmol 2011;152:251‐255. © 2011 by Elsevier Inc.

superficial Temporal Artery pseudoaneurysm diagnosis and preoperative planning with ct angiography
American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2003Co-Authors: M T Walker, Benjamin P Liu, Sean A Salehi, Sunil Badve, Hunt H BatjerAbstract:We report the use of CT angiography in the diagnosis and preoperative planning of a superficial Temporal Artery pseudoaneurysm. A 50-year-old man presented with a pulsatile preauricular mass 4 weeks after undergoing pterional craniotomy for aneurysm repair. CT angiography revealed a 2.5-cm pseudoaneurysm arising from the posterior margin of the right superficial Temporal Artery at the inferior margin of the craniotomy incision. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case showing the usefulness of CT angiography alone in the diagnosis and characterization of a superficial Temporal Artery pseudoaneurysm.

Traumatic aneurysm of the superficial Temporal Artery
Journal of Trauma-injury Infection and Critical Care, 1994Co-Authors: James T. Fox, Paul R. Cordts, B. C. GwinnAbstract:Traumatic aneurysms of the Temporal Artery are uncommon, with less than 200 cases reported in the literature. A case resulting from a head injury from playing a popular new survival game known as paintball is presented here. A general review of the literature on traumatic Temporal Artery aneurysms is provided, as well as information on this new form of recreation and safety recommendations for paintball players
