Primary venous aneurysms are uncommon solitary dilatation of a vein that can occur throughout the venous system.

A painful primary venous aneurysm is an extremely rare clinical entity. We report a case of painful thrombosed venous aneurysm of the great saphenous vein in a young male and managed surgically.
