We report a rare case of a symptomatic developmental venous anomaly with unique radiological characteristics and its natural and clinical evolution. Despite the presence of a capillary stain, our patient exhibited temporary exacerbations and spontaneous regression, suggesting that the capillary stain was associated with a reversible condition. This is the first report to detail the spatiotemporal changes of a developmental venous anomaly with capillary stain through imaging, suggesting that regular follow-up imaging is warranted in the management of patients with developmental venous anomalies.
