title: [Idiopathic thrombosis of the internal jugular vein].
abstract: The venous thrombosis represents a vascular disorder usually involving the low limbs. The manifestation at the level of the upper limbs and the neck is much more rare, particularly as a consequence of a central venous catheterization of an infectious disease or of a trauma. The authors report an unusual case of spontaneous thrombosis of the internal jugular vein and analyze the most salient nosologic, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects.
