    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Pediatric Radiology
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Internal jugular phlebectasia is a rare congenital venous malformation.
    • It can present as a compressible neck mass, particularly in pediatric patients.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management and to rule out other cervical pathologies.

    Observation:

    • Two pediatric cases with internal jugular phlebectasia were analyzed.
    • Specific clinical presentations and radiographic features were noted.
    • The condition involves abnormal dilation of the internal jugular vein.

    Findings:

    • Computed tomography (CT) and venography proved valuable diagnostic tools.
    • These imaging modalities effectively visualized the phlebectasia.

  • The study identified characteristic clinical and radiographic signs.

    • Implications:

    • Early and accurate diagnosis of internal jugular phlebectasia is essential.
    • CT and venography are recommended for evaluating suspected cases.
    • Understanding this condition aids in the differential diagnosis of cervical masses in children.
