The authors describe a case of superior vena cava thrombosis with laterocervical lymphoadenopathy (probably of metastatic origin). Vascular tumors are a large neoplasm family with a wide clinical and histological spectrum. They may localize on the skin, soft tissues, liver, spleen and parotid gland. The case describes a 65 year-old male, affected by COLD and chronic hepatitis. He came to the hospital for strong gastric pain, which did not vary with meal assumption and objectivity of inflated superficial veins of arms, jugular veins, chest superficial veins and venous capillars and of the epigastric zone, accompanied with right laterocervical lymphoadenomegaly. Endoscopic ultrasonic and X-ray examinations showed a superior vena cava thrombosis determining superficial collateral, azygos and emiazygos vein inflation. The histologic examination of pathologic lymph nodes resulted as hemangioendotelioma/angiosarcoma, a rare case of lymphonodal vascular tumor with a very poor prognosis.
