A venous aneurysm (VA) is characterized by localized venous dilatation. We report a case of a left external jugular VA in a child with recurrent thrombophlebitis. The patient was diagnosed at 1 year of age, and the VA temporarily regressed after thrombophlebitis at 3 years of age, but it recanalized and recurred at 7 years of age, necessitating surgical resection. Five years after surgery, no recurrence of VA was observed. Although surgical resection of a VA associated with thrombophlebitis may be an effective treatment option, with a favorable post treatment course, early excision should also be considered.
静脉瘤（VA）的特征是局部静脉扩张。我们报告一例患有复发性血栓性静脉炎的儿童左侧颈外静脉VA。该患者1岁时被诊断出，3岁时血栓性静脉炎发作后VA暂时消退，但7岁时再次通并复发，需要进行手术切除。手术后五年，未观察到VA复发。虽然与血栓性静脉炎相关的VA手术切除可能是一种有效的治疗选择，且治疗后病程良好，但也应考虑早期切除。
