Abstract
Cirsoid aneurysms are rare scalp arteriovenous malformations with arterial feeders from the superficial temporal and the occipital arteries. The course of the superficial temporal artery is relatively long and exposed, making it vulnerable and is involved in approximately 90% of the cases. Diagnosis can be made clinically, but confirmation requires imaging with ultrasound, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging. Catheter angiography is the gold standard investigation. We present typical case of cirsoid aneurysms.
