Venous cystic adventitial disease is a rare vascular condition that can have significant effects on a patient’s quality of life. The clinical presentation of venous cystic adventitial disease is variable, and there are no established guidelines on investigation or treatment of the disease. We present a series of three patients with venous cystic adventitial disease of the common femoral vein, treated within a single vascular surgery unit. Each of the three patients presented within 18 months of each other, despite the rarity of the disease. These are the only known cases treated within this vascular surgery unit. The investigation, management and treatment of each patient are individualised, with a management focus on quality of life.
