Résumé

Venous aneurysm (VA) is an uncommon vascular disease; however, VA, especially in the lower extremities, can lead to critical complications, such as pulmonary embolism (PE). We report a case with a VA located in the sural vein (SV), which did not lead to PE; however, it had the potential to cause PE. Therefore, we treated this VA by total excision. The popliteal vein (PV) is the most common VA location in the lower extremities, but SV is extremely rare. We should always be aware that, in addition to the PV, VAs may also occur in the SV.
