internal Jugular Vein thrombosis following functional neck dissection
Laryngoscope, 1995Co-Authors: Timothy G Leontsinis, Andrew R Currie, Aylwyn MannellAbstract:Twenty-five patients on whom 27 functional neck dissections were performed for upper aerodigestive tract squamous carcinoma were prospectively investigated to determine the frequency of venous thrombosis on the side of the neck dissection. Retrograde venography, performed within 1 month postoperatively, was used to determine the status of the internal Jugular Vein. Nineteen Veins were patent at venography, but ipsilateral occlusion was demonstrated in 8. In 5 of the 8 patients, venous thrombosis followed major wound sepsis or fistula formation. No causes for the remaining 3 cases of internal Jugular Vein thromboses were identified. Possible mechanisms for “spontaneous” internal Jugular Vein occlusion following functional neck dissection are endothelial trauma, reduction in venous flow during anesthesia, and the altered coagulability profile of some cancer patients. The finding that functional neck dissection does not always maintain patency of the internal Jugular Vein is especially important when surgical treatment to the opposite side of the neck is planned, as the surgeon may be faced with an unexpectedly complicated postoperative course.

sonographic diagnosis of a saccular aneurysm of the internal Jugular Vein
Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 2007Co-Authors: In-sup Song, Hyeon YuAbstract:Aneurysm of the internal Jugular Vein is an extremely rare condition. It is usually detected during childhood and is characterized by being more prominent during Valsalva maneuvers such as vomiting, coughing, and straining. Most of the cases reported in the English literature are fusiform aneurysms of the internal Jugular Vein. We report the case of a saccular aneurysm of the left internal Jugular Vein in a 59-year-old woman with no change in size of the aneurysm during a Valsalva manuever. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

internal Jugular Vein thrombosis associated with hemodialysis catheters
Radiology, 2003Co-Authors: Terrence D Wilkin, Kathleen A Lane, Michael A. Kraus, Scott O. TrerotolaAbstract:PURPOSE: To determine the prevalence of internal Jugular Vein thrombosis among patients undergoing hemodialysis in whom tunneled dialysis catheters were placed by interventional radiologists and to evaluate potential risk factors for thrombosis, such as the number of catheters inserted per patient through the right internal Jugular Vein, catheter type and material, total catheter days, and catheter-associated infection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ultrasonographic (US) evaluation of the right internal Jugular Vein was performed by interventional radiologists in 143 patients with a history of dialysis catheter placement. The examination focused on the detection of right internal Jugular Vein thrombosis, with or without occlusion. Total catheter days, catheter type, and catheter-related complications, most notably infection, were evaluated with database analysis for possible association with subsequent development of thrombosis. Statistical analysis of potential risk factors was performed with logistic regressio...
