Özet
Paget-Schroetter syndrome is a rare clinical condition characterized by subclavian vein thrombosis following repetitive upper extremity effort. In this case, we presented a 35-year-old female patient who underwent septorhinoplasty in our clinic. A swelling of the left part of the neck extending to the clavicle was detected 4 hours after the operation. Computed tomography of the thorax revealed a pleural effusion at the base of the left lung and a computed tomography angiogram demonstrated a recanalized left subclavian vein thrombosis. History of the patient clarified that she had moved to another house and had lifted heavy furnitures 4 days before the surgery. The patient was diagnosed with Paget Schroetter syndrome followed by chylothorax. Paget-Schroetter syndrome followed by chylothorax could be presented after a surgical intervention of the head and neck. Early diagnosis is essential to reduce the risk of ongoing morbidity and mortality.
