Intravenous Lobular Capillary Haemangioma of the Jugular Vein: A Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract

Intravenous lobular capillary haemangioma (IVLCH) is extremely rare and occurs mostly in the head, neck, and upper extremity veins. This was a case of IVLCH that occurred in the right external jugular vein and was diagnosed by conventional ultrasound and ultrasound elastography. Herein, we described the conventional ultrasonographic and ultrasound elastographic features of one case of IVLCH and discussed the clinical manifestations, pathological and ultrasonographic features, and differential diagnosis of IVLCH.
