External jugular vein thrombosis secondary to deep tissue neck massage.
Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques 2017 September
An 85-year-old man presented with an acute asymptomatic lateral neck mass in the context of deep tissue neck massages during the past year. He was referred to vascular surgery after an ultrasound examination of the neck revealed a thrombus in the external jugular vein. His past medical history and comorbidities were noncontributory. A multidisciplinary team of vascular surgeons and hematologists did not recommend any anticoagulation, given that the patient did not have any risk factors for thrombosis as well as normal D-dimer levels. The patient was maintained on his previous dose of aspirin (81 mg daily).
