Superior vena cava syndrome is secondary to obstruction of the superior vena cava and/or brachiocephalic venous trunk, which are currently common during venous catheterization (implantable chamber, dialysis catheter or during placement of an endocavitary stimulation lead).
We report the case of a 50-year-old patient with beta thalassemia who had been wearing a chemotherapy box for 2 years, and presented with clinically symptomatic superior vena cava syndrome.
A phleboscanner was ordered, showing a tight stenosis of the superior vena cava.
A double-approach angioplasty was performed with good postoperative results.
