Surgical management of a facial artery aneurysm in sub-Saharan Africa: a rare case report.
Facial artery aneurysms are extremely rare. To date, only nine cases have been reported in the literature. We report here the first case in Sub-Saharan Africa, in a 48-year-old male with no significant medical history, who presented with a swelling in the right submandibular region. Following radiological investigations, he underwent successful surgical resection. No complications or recurrence of the aneurysm were noted during a five-year follow-up.
