    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Vascular Malformations

    Background:

    • Congenital aneurysms of the neck veins are uncommon vascular anomalies.
    • These malformations can present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in pediatric patients.

    Observation:

    • A case report details a 19-month-old female infant presenting with a congenital aneurysm of a neck vein.
    • The aneurysm was identified as a significant vascular malformation affecting the jugular or subclavian venous system.

    Findings:

    • The pathogenesis of this rare venous aneurysm is attributed to an inherent defect in the vascular wall structure.
    • Histopathological examination or advanced imaging may reveal underlying connective tissue abnormalities or smooth muscle deficiencies.

    Implications:

    • Early diagnosis and surgical intervention are crucial for preventing complications such as thrombosis, rupture, or hemodynamic compromise.
    • This case underscores the importance of considering venous aneurysms in the differential diagnosis of neck masses in children.
    • Simple surgical excision offers a definitive treatment option, preserving vascular integrity and function.
