  • Other Comments:

    An exemplificative case of traumatic etiology for a STA aneurysm. However, why did the Authors conclude that this was a degenerative aneurysm?I would prefere to use this terminology only for atherosclerotic lesion. 

     

    I would suggest to add this reference:

    True aneurysms of the superficial temporal artery: report of three cases.
