ABSTRACT
Ultrasonography and computed tomography of the lower extremities revealed fresh and chronic mixed-vein thrombosis (FCMVTs) presenting the "Blowfish sign," accompanied by pulmonary embolism. FCMVTs presenting the "Blowfish sign" may increase the risk of fatal pulmonary embolism, and its detection by ultrasonography is important for preventing pulmonary embolism.
