ABSTRACT

A tromboflebite supurativa da veia jugular interna ou síndrome de Lemierre foi descrita pela primeira vez em 1900. O evento inicial mais frequente é a infecção de orofaringe associada à trombose da veia jugular interna. Embora uma entidade rara, a síndrome de Lemierre continua a ser uma doença de morbidade e mortalidade consideráveis devido à sua progressão e atrasos de diagnóstico.


Suppurative thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein, or Lemierre syndrome, was described for the first time in 1900. The most common initial event is an infection of the oropharynx associated with thrombosis of the internal jugular vein. While it is a rare entity, Lemierre syndrome remains a disease that causes considerable morbidity and mortality, due to its progression and to delays in diagnosis.
