3 Cases of Superior Vena Cava Syndrome Following Percutaneous Right Ventricular Assist Device Placement.


ABSTRACT: We present 3 cases of superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome following percutaneous right ventricular assist device (RVAD) placement. Each case underscores the importance of early recognition of SVC syndrome in patients with percutaneous RVAD insertion via the internal jugular vein and calls for heightened awareness of device-associated complications. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).
