“…The success rate of 60-90 % has been reported with this time consuming, and painful method [36]. Treatment of a pseudoaneurysm with invasive techniques include surgical excision [37], percutaneous embolization [38][39][40], or both [41]. With the development of endovascular techniques, embolization is becoming popular.…”

Pseudoaneurysms of the branches of the external carotid artery as a result of trauma are rare in oral and maxillofacial surgery practice. The most affected branches are the superficial temporal artery, internal maxillary artery and distal part of facial artery, usually where they pass over the bone. Very few cases of facial artery pseudoaneurysms of proximal parts (from external carotid artery up to the lower border of the mandible) are reported in the literature. We present a review of literature for management of late post-traumatic pseudoaneurysmal cyst and a case report involving proximal part of facial artery in the submandibular region following open reduction and rigid fixation of the condylar fracture in a 25-year-old male. To our knowledge this is the fourth reported case of proximal facial artery pseudoaneurysm.
