Abstract
Benign primary venous tumors are rare. While venous lipomas have been reported in the vena cava, their incidence in the remainder of the venous circulation is less well known. We present what we believe to be the first reported case of an intravascular lipoma arising from the internal jugular vein. The clinical presentation, imaging characteristics, and histologic features are presented. We also performed a review of the current literature.
