Abstract

Intravascular fasciitis is a rare intravascular benign tumor that is usually located in the head and neck, the upper extremities, and trunk. Here we report a unique case of intravascular fasciitis occurring in the common femoral vein and causing iliofemoral vein thrombosis in an otherwise healthy 29-year-old woman.
