Internal jugular vein (IJV) thrombosis is an extremely rare disease. It is usually due to intravenous drug abuse, prolonged central venous catheterization or deep head-neck infections or trauma. Related malignancies, either known or occult, are also uncommon and not well documented in the etiology of IJV thrombosis.
Bulging of the external jugular vein is known as jugular vein distention. The height of the bulge measured from the top of the clavicle, or collar bone, is an indirect indicator of the central venous pressure, the pressure in the right atrium (the heart chamber that receives blood returning from the body). Jugular vein distention is affected by the position of your body. If the height is greater than 3 to 4 centimeters when measured while you are in bed with your head elevated 45 degrees, this may signal vascular or heart disease.
