Abstract
|
|
|
|
Spontaneous venous thrombosis developing in the internal jugular vein is very unusual. The common causes usually include intravenous drug abuse, jugular vein catheterization, neck dissection, a hypercoagulable state associated with malignancies, neck injury or ovarian overstimulation syndrome. A 30-year-old woman with no remarkable past medical history visited our outpatient office due to neck swelling with pain. She underwent CT scan, Doppler sonogram and fine needle aspiration biopsy. We could confirm metastatic lymphadenopathy and internal jugular vein thrombosis. We present here the case of internal jugular vein thrombosis associated with metastatic malignancy.
