Transcatheter management of superior vena cava obstruction following cardiac surgery: A case report from a resource-limited set-up.
Obstruction of the superior vena cava (SVC) is a rare complication after cardiac surgery in infants and children. We present the case of an 8-year-old boy who underwent bi-directional Glenn shunt followed by takedown of Glenn shunt and complete repair for cyanotic congenital heart disease. After 4 years of surgery, the child developed features of superior vena caval (SVC) syndrome. Echocardiography and CT angiography revealed complete obstruction of SVC without any forward flow. Transcatheter intervention was performed successfully to re-canalize and stent the SVC to maintain its patency. The patient was doing well at follow-up appointments, with good laminar flow through the stent. In conclusion, transcatheter management of post cardiac surgery SVC obstruction was successful in this patient.
