Abstract:
Internal jugular vein (IJV) thrombosis is a form of deep vein thrombosis that has a potentially fatal outcome associated with its intracranial propagation. Computed tomography and ultrasonography are useful diagnostic tools. We report a case of IJV thrombosis associated with lymphoma that was detected by carotid ultrasonography and had disappeared in follow up ultrasonography.
