Abstract
Vascular complications after head and neck surgical procedures are rare but can life-threatening. A pseudoaneurysm may appear weeks or months after the initial injury and may be difficult to diagnose. The authors report the case of a 43-year-old man involved in a motor vehicle accident presenting with multiple facial fractures, which after surgical treatment presented episodes of bleeding. After an angiography was performed, a pseudoaneurysm of the facial artery was detected. The patient later underwent endovascular embolization and had a satisfactory resolution.
