Case report reveals successful surgical excision of a venous aneurysm in a 22-year-old male’s right arm, indicating effective intervention for this rare condition.
Venous aneurysm of upper extremities is a rare entity. We report a case of cephalic vein (CV) aneurysm in a 22-year-old male who presented with a slowly growing painless swelling in the right arm along the lateral aspect. Duplex ultrasound showed an aneurysm originating from the anterior wall of the CV with venous waveforms. It was managed successfully with in toto surgical excision.
