Sumario:Servelle-Martorell syndrome, also known as angio-osteohypotrophic syndrome, is a congenital venous malformation that rarely involves the arterial system. There are many different, mainly conservative, treatment methods. We present the case of a 28-year-old woman with a history of left arm and back lesions, which appeared at birth and had enlarged over time. She had been diagnosed with a vascular malformation but had not yet received treatment. She presented to our hospital with numbness in her left arm and was diagnosed with Servelle-Martorell syndrome based on computed tomography (CT) angiography. This case emphasizes that CT angiography is a useful modality for evaluating the extent of the venous malformations in patients with Servelle-Martorell syndrome.
