Biography
Technical success was achieved in all cases. SVC recanalization achieved symptoms’ relief and restored fistula function in the symptomatic patient. One patient underwent arterio-venous fistula creation on the recanalized side 3 months after the procedure. The remaining catheters were functional at median follow up time of 9 months (1-14 months). Two major complications occurred including a right hemothorax and a small hemopericardium, which were managed by covered stent placement across the perforated SVC
