Popis: | Primary tumors of the major body veins arising intraluminally are rare clinical entities. As such, few cases have been reported in the literature. As a primary tumor, hemangiomas arising in the internal jugular vein are extremely rare, while those arising in the external jugular vein are only slightly more common. We present a case of an internal jugular vein hemangioma that was incidentally discovered during an ultrasound examination performed for the evaluation of the internal carotid arteries. We believe that this is the second case of internal jugular vein hemangioma reported in the English literature. |
