Lemierre Syndrome with Extensive Thrombosis: A Unique Case Report and Literature Review.

Background: Lemierre syndrome (LS) is a rare complication of upper aerodigestive tract infections characterized by proximal and distal septic emboli, commonly including internal jugular vein (IJV) thrombosis. Diagnosis can be challenging, and treatment delays can result in increased patient morbidity and mortality. We present a rare case of LS with extensive thrombosis and multiple sites of distal infection and a narrative review of the literature.
