History and Symptoms
For superficial suppurative thrombophlebitis, there is usually a history of intravenous catheter, a phlebotomy attempt, or an intravenous injection. Clinical manifestations include:[1][2]
- Fever
- Erythema
- Tenderness, and purulent drainage at the site of the involved vessel.
Lemierre syndrome should be suspected when there is association of pharyngeal ulceration, a pseudomembrane, erythema, tenderness, swelling, and induration overlying the jugular vein along with pharyngitis, acute fever, rigors, localized neck pain.[3]
