Overview
Lemierre’s syndrome is now a rare condition with an incidence of 0.36 cases per 100,000 individuals annually. Lemierre’s syndrome is primarily a disease of previously healthy children, adolescents and young adults.[1] Extremes of age also predispose the occurrence of septic thrombophlebitis, due to the increased risk of infections by catheters in multiple health issues. Pylephlebitis is slightly more common in males.[2]
