  "abstract": "Thoracic central venous obstruction (TCVO) can cause facial and upper extremity edema and it is often associated with malignancies. We herein report a rare case of cervical esophageal squamous cell carcinoma complicated by TCVO type 2 during chemoradiotherapy. Approximately 1 week after starting 5-fluorouracil plus cisplatin with radiotherapy, the patient developed acute painful swelling of the left arm. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed thrombosis of the left internal jugular vein with extrinsic compression of the ipsilateral subclavian vein by a cervical tumor. Symptoms improved after anticoagulation therapy while chemoradiotherapy was continued, although the improvement was likely multifactorial.",
