Numerous methods of venous reconstruction have been described to help prevent the many complications related to bilateral ligation of the internal jugular veins. The authors report a case in which the superficial femoral vein was used as the donor graft for reconstruction of the internal jugular vein in a 61-year-old man who underwent a tonsillar commando procedure for cancer. The advantages of using this donor vein for reconstruction of the internal jugular vein are summarized.
