Abstract
A case of external jugular venous thrombosis secondary to misplacement of central venous catheter is presented. The CT findings included enlargement of the external jugular vein, central thrombosis, and vessel wall enhancement. Computed tomography is an excellent noninvasive modality for the evaluation of suspected venous thrombosis.
