A Case of an Upper Extremity Venous Aneurysm

Abstract

Venous aneurysms (VAs) are localized venous dilatation lesions without venous extensions or tortuosity, and unlike varicose veins, their occurrence is relatively rare, especially in the upper limbs. Their origin is unknown, but trauma, inflammation, and congenital weakness of the veins are involved. In this report, we described a case of a VA on the left basilic vein of a 38-year-old female patient with no history of trauma.
