Abstract

An 80-year-old female was admitted to the hospital, presenting a pulsatile and painless mass on the right temporal site occurred one month ago following a blunt head trauma. She was under oral apixaban therapy (2x5 mg) due to deep venous thromboembolism for several months. Doppler ultrasound examination and computed tomography angiography revealed pseudoaneursym of the right superficial temporal artery. Patient underwent surgical exploration under local anesthesia. Total rupture of the STA was observed and ligated.

Özet

80 yaşında bir kadın hasta, bir ay önce künt kafa travmasının ardından sağ temporal bölgede pulsatil ve ağrısız bir kitle görülmesi üzerine yatırıldı. Birkaç aydır derin venöz tromboembolizm nedeniyle oral apiksaban tedavisi (2x5 mg) kullanan hastada, Doppler ultrason ve BT Anijo incelemesinde, sağ süperfisiyal temporal arterin psödoanevrizması olduğu görüldü. Hastaya lokal anestezi altında cerrahi yapıldı. Sağ süperfisiyal temporal arterin rüptüre olduğu gözlendi ve bu damar bağlanarak tedavi edildi.
