description A nine-year-old boy came to our clinic for the appearance of a voluminous swelling at the base of the neck in the jugular area after coughing. He underwent fibroscopy and a contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography (CT) scan, which did not indicate pathological findings even during the Valsalva maneuvre. After a color-Doppler ultrasound of the epiaortic vessels was obtained, a diagnosis of idiopathic phlebectasia of the internal jugular veins was made. The cause of the jugular phlebectasia remains unclear, and no treatment is indicated for this rare, benign, and self-limiting condition.
