True aneurysms of the facial artery are rare and their management protocol is not defined. There are only eight cases reported in the literature. Here we report a case of true aneurysm of the facial artery in a 78 years old female. She presented with swelling left side of the neck who underwent further imaging including CT angiography which revealed an aneurysm of left facial artery. She was successfully treated with coiling.

“…Treatment of aneurysms is known to involve ligation, resection and embolization. Four previously reported cases [ 1–3 , 5 ] selected excision as a treatment strategy and embolization was performed in the fifth case [ 4 ]. Therefore, this is the first case of surgical excision of the true aneurysm after internal trapping.…”

A report of true aneurysms is extremely rare. There are only five previous case reports of true aneurysm of the facial artery. In the previously reported cases, there was no case that underwent trapping and surgical excision. In this case report, we describe the procedure of internal trapping before the surgical excision of a huge true aneurysm of the right facial artery for a 79-year-old woman. There was no recurrence of the aneurysm during a 6-month follow-up period.
