Ligation of bilateral IJV causes interruption of major part of venous drainage from Dural venous sinuses that causes complications such as gross facial edema, increased intracranial pressure, brain compression, coma and even death increasing the morbidity and mortality post-operatively. This case report illustrates a case of normalcy noted in post-operative period in a patient after ligation of bilateral IJV in left lower alveolus cancer.

Introduction: The external jugular vein (EJV) is a superficial vein of the neck in dogs; its significance is evident in veterinary clinical practice, encompassing surgeries and interventional procedures. However, there have been no reports on EJV variations in canines, despite extensive studies on variations in the jugular veins in humans. This study aimed to use CT imaging to evaluate the prevalence of anatomic vascular variations of the EJVs in Shih Tzu dogs and to describe the clinical and CT characteristics of these vascular variants.

Article Synopsis
- Lemierre syndrome involves septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein (IJV) and infection spread after an oropharyngeal infection, while Lemierre-like syndrome occurs without a recent oropharyngeal infection and can be caused by non-Fusobacterium bacteria.
- A case study reports an infant with Lemierre-like syndrome caused by Enterobacter cloaca bacteremia, presenting symptoms of cough, fever, and respiratory distress, but with no known prior throat infection.
- Imaging showed thrombosis in the IJV and superior vena cava, along with lung and liver abscesses; treatment included antibiotics and draining the abscesses, leading to the infant's recovery.
