title: A congenital arteriovenous aneurysm in the neck.
abstract: One male case of a congenital arteriovenous aneurysm in the neck was described. It was fed by a distal branch of the external carotid artery and drained into the external jugular vein. A swelling of the neck and a bruit of the ear disappeared following resection of this malformation. Nine published cases are summarized and briefly discussed.
