Collateral pathways arising from internal jugular venous occlusion in Lemierre's syndrome

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The use of anticoagulants in Lemierre's syndrome is not well-defined, lacking clear evidence for their efficacy. This report describes a patient with complete occlusion of the internal jugular vein by a thrombus who did not develop expected complications due to the formation of collateral venous channels.
