Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The authors report a patient with the rare presentation of bilateral external jugular vein thrombosis. A 45-year-old man presented with swelling over both sides of the neck and puffiness of the face. Physical examination revealed cordlike thickening of both the external jugular veins. Two-dimensional echocardiographic and Doppler studies showed thrombosis of both the external jugular veins and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) revealed nonvisualization of external jugular veins of either side. No malignancy, coagulation disorder, or any infection was demonstrable. A regular follow-up for 1 year was done, but no other cause could be found and there was no progression of the disease.
