The diagnosis, preoperative work-up, and treatment of a neck mass can be extensive and complex. We report a case of an adolescent female who presented with a soft compressible mass in her neck that became more prominent during phonation (singing). Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed this mass to be an isolated dilation of the internal jugular vein. The patient subsequently underwent an uncomplicated cosmetic excision of a large venous aneurysm. We recommend dynamic MRI as a useful noninvasive exam in the preoperative evaluation of this rare entity.
颈部肿块的诊断、术前检查及治疗可能涉及面广且复杂。我们报告一例青少年女性病例，该患者颈部出现一个柔软、可压缩的肿块，在发声（唱歌）时肿块更加明显。动态磁共振成像（MRI）证实该肿块为颈内静脉的孤立性扩张。患者随后接受了一次简单的大型静脉瘤美容切除术。我们推荐动态MRI作为一种有用的无创检查，用于该罕见疾病的术前评估。
