Abstract

Arterial pseudoaneurysms are rare in oral and maxillofacial surgery, but when they occur, quick recognition and management is necessary to avoid devastating consequences. The authors report a case of a pseudoaneurysm of the external carotid artery that developed after open reduction and internal fixation of a mandibular condyle fracture.
