A 48-year-old male without marked blood coagulation disorder developed a pseudoaneurysm of the superficial temporal artery (STA) following craniotomy. Cerebral angiography revealed a pseudoaneurysm on the parietal branch of the STA. Total extirpation was performed, and the postoperative course was uneventful. Most pseudoaneurysms of the STA develop after trauma. Lesions rarely develop after craniotomy. However, pseudoaneurysm of the STA should be considered as a possible surgical complication.
