A 67-year-old male patient of Han ethnicity in China suffered from a large inflammatory\u00a0neck\u00a0mass involving left internal jugular vein thrombosis diagnosed as Lemierre\u2019s syndrome and finally cured by surgical treatment. In addition, a literature review was carried out through PubMed using the terms \u201cLemierre\u2019s syndrome\/disease and review, meta-analysis or retrospective study\u201d and \u201cLemierre\u2019s syndrome\/disease and internal jugular vein\u201d. This search yielded six articles that recorded surgical methods such as drainage, craniotomy, tooth extraction, and ligation of the occluded vein to give clinicians more ideas about the treatment of the Lemierre\u2019s syndrome.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This is the first review to summarize the conditions under which surgical treatment are conducted. Additionally, this is the first report of such a large inflammatory neck mass that was completely cured by surgical resection and internal jugular vein ligation.
