Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Paget-Schroetter syndrome is an uncommon cause of pulmonary thromboembolic disease that should be suspected in young patients in whom effort-related subclavian vein thrombosis should be investigated. Our case illustrates the pivotal role of imaging and the different modalities available to establish such a diagnosis.
