| Popis: | Jugular venous aneurysms are uncommon and can involve the internal, external, and anterior jugular veins. These aneurysms may be congenital or acquired secondary to malignancy, inflammation, trauma or arteriovenous fistulas. Treatment strategies are not clearly defined and involve either surveillance of asymptomatic aneurysms or resection, excision, and ligation of the aneurysmal vein. In this case series, we discuss the presentation, diagnostics, treatments and outcomes in 3 patients with jugular venous aneurysms. |
