The occurrence of superficial vein aneurysms is uncommon.This report includes three lower extremity cases: a 38-year-old man with a Great saphenous vein aneurysm mimicking an inguinal hernia, a 40-year-old woman with a Small saphenous vein aneurysm at the back of her knee, and a 35-year-old smoker man with a dorsal foot mass confirmed as a medial marginal vein aneurysm on doplex sonography.All patients denied any prior trauma.All patients denied a history of trauma.and all of them had no medical history.all aneurysms were excised and their postoperative evaluation were uneventful.This article may increase awareness and encourage surgeons and radiologists to consider venous aneurysm as a differential diagnosis among all lower limb lesions, from the groin to the foot.
