Aneurysms of the jugular vein are an uncommon condition, typical of childhood and adolescence although they can appear at any age. Clinically, they normally constitute an asymptomatic cervical mass which increases when Valsalva's manoeuvre is applied. Doppler echography is the most effective diagnostic test, with CT or NMR for doubtful situations. Treatment is conservative except for complications or major aesthetic repercussions. We present here the case of a 65-year-old female patient, and review the literature regarding aneurysms of the jugular vein.

Los aneurismas de la yugular interna son una entidad poco frecuente, propia de la infancia y la adolescencia, aunque pueden aparecer a cualquier edad. Clínicamente se observa una masa cervical asintomática que aumenta al realizar maniobras de Valsalva. La prueba diagnóstica más eficaz es la ecografía Doppler y, en situaciones dudosas, la tomografía computarizada y la resonancia magnética. El tratamiento es fundamentalmente conservador salvo con complicaciones o repercusiones estéticas importantes. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 65 años afecta de esta enfermedad y revisamos la literatura publicada al respecto
