Summary: The internal jugular aneurysm was accessed through dissection along the sternocleidomastoid muscle. Multiple venous branches were ligated, and the parotid gland was partially divided to expose the aneurysm. After isolating the internal jugular vein, the aneurysm was resected, and a primary lateral vein repair was performed. The 3.4 x 5.0 cm lobular aneurysm was excised in continuity with the left jugular vein.
