Lower extremity superficial venous aneurysms are occasionally encountered by clinicians and are almost always located above the knee. Very few cases of aneurysm of the medial marginal vein in the most distal part, near the origin of the great saphenous vein, have been reported. We present a case of partially thrombosed aneurysm of the medial marginal vein, and briefly review the imaging characteristics and treatment options of this entity. Being aware of the existence of superficial venous aneurysms may help clinicians in their differential diagnosis of foot masses and choice of appropriate treatment.
临床医生偶尔会遇到下肢浅表静脉瘤，且几乎都位于膝盖以上。在大隐静脉起始部附近最远端的内侧缘静脉瘤病例报道极少。我们报告一例内侧缘静脉部分血栓形成的动脉瘤病例，并简要回顾该病变的影像学特征和治疗选择。认识到浅表静脉瘤的存在可能有助于临床医生对足部肿块进行鉴别诊断并选择合适的治疗方法。
