Internal maxillary artery (IMA) pseudoaneurysms are rare, and typically occur following trauma or orthognathic surgery. Pseudoaneurysms are life-threatening conditions, and expeditious workup and treatment is critical. Endoscopic treatment of an IMA pseudoaneurysm is a feasible option and should be considered when IR embolization is not available. The objective of this study is to review the literature on IMA pseudoaneurysms and present the first reported case of an IMA pseudoaneurysm successfully treated endoscopically.
上颌内动脉(IMA)假性动脉瘤较为罕见,通常发生于创伤或正颌手术后。假性动脉瘤是危及生命的疾病,迅速的检查和治疗至关重要。当无法进行介入放射栓塞(IR 栓塞)时,内镜治疗 IMA 假性动脉瘤是一种可行的选择。本研究旨在回顾 IMA 假性动脉瘤的文献,并报告首例成功内镜治疗的 IMA 假性动脉瘤病例。
