Femoral vein intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia

Abstract

We present a case report of a 55-year-old woman who had a femoral vein intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia that required excision of the mass and subsequent repair of the right femoral vein using her right anterior accessory saphenous vein. She first presented with findings of a non-occlusive deep vein thrombus. However, after 6 months of persistent and enlarging mass with subsequent intravascular component on a follow-up duplex scan, a decision was made to bring her to the operating room for exploration and excision.
