Superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare complication of arterial injury developing on the forehead following blunt trauma. There is little written on this entity in the dermatopathology literature. We describe two cases of superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm in two men aged 53 and 25 years, one of whom had a recent history of head trauma. This report reviews the classic histopathologic findings of STA pseudoaneurysm and highlights ways to distinguish it from other entities in the differential diagnosis.
