Subsequent CT-scan demonstrated extensive subcutaneous emphysema and pneumomediastinum as well as a thrombus in the right jugular vein extending to the superior vena cava and into the right brachial vein (Figure 1). CT obtained at 19th (T1) and 25th day of ICU admission (T2) showed complete resorption of mediastinal air and venous thrombus (Figure 1). Concurrent microcirculatory images revealed a recovery of microcirculatory alterations (Table 2 and Figure 1).
