“…In addition, larger and deeper vessels are protected from injuries caused by the underlying soft tissues. 16 For this reason, if bleeding persists, the angiography should be repeated for further investigation. As observed in all the 3 reported cases, the initial images did not suggest the existence of a pseudoaneurysm, and a second investigations was required.…”

The present study aims to develop an integrative review about pseudoaneurysms after traumatic facial trauma, through the analysis of its etiology, type of fracture, signs and symptoms, time elapsed between the trauma and the exposure of signs and symptoms, and treatment performed in these cases. Furthermore into the report, there are 3 clinical cases that occurred in the Buccomaxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology service of Hospital da Restauração Recife/PE. The study was carried out in 2 phases, first, a digital research about post-traumatic craniofacial pseudoaneurysm was performed in the following databases “MEDLINE/PubMed,” “Scielo” and “Scopus,” in September 2019, with 5 articles being included. In the second, 3 cases of patients with high-impact facial trauma who developed pseudoaneurysm of the internal carotid artery were reported. The average age of the patients was 35.6 years, all patients were male (100%), the majority (60%) being victims of an automobile accident, 3 patients (60%) suffered craniofacial trauma and 2 (40%) had trauma only to the face, most of them had symptoms later on due to the trauma, in 80% of cases the therapy instituted was embolization. Cases of high-impact craniofacial traumas, which present epistaxis and/or ophthalmological alterations correlated to fractures, should be carefully evaluated, determining a better prognosis for the patient.

Maxillomandibular advancement is a common orthognathic surgical procedure in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. Although rare, pseudoaneurysms may form following orthognathic surgery, which includes maxillomandibular advancement. Iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms from orthognathic surgery typically occur in the branches of the maxillary artery (sphenopalatine and descending palatine branches) or the facial artery, but uncommonly affect the inferior alveolar artery. We present a unique case of a pseudoaneurysm hemorrhage of the inferior alveolar artery on postoperative day 10 following maxillomandibular advancement diagnosed by computed tomographic angiography and successfully treated with fluoroscopy-guided endovascular embolization. Pseudoaneurysm hemorrhages of the inferior alveolar artery following orthognathic surgery are rare, with only 1 known published case report which occurred with significant intraoperative pulsatile bleeding. This is the only known case of a delayed inferior alveolar artery pseudoaneurysm bleed in the absence of significant intraoperative hemorrhage.
