Purpose: The purpose was to analyze the technical, clinical, and survival outcomes of our patients with malignant superior cava vein syndrome (SVCS) treated with endovascular approach and analyze the efficacy of different stent types used.
Material And Methods: It is an observational, retrospective, single-center study. From 2006 to 2023, 42 patients (32 male, 10 female, mean age 62 years, age range, 41-87 years) underwent percutaneous stent placement for malignant SVCS.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the effectiveness of regular CT scans following endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair (EVAR) and investigated the impact of AAA neck anatomy on imaging frequency.
- A retrospective analysis included 127 predominantly male patients with a mean age of 75.9 years, classified into groups based on the anatomical features of their aneurysm neck—favorable or hostile.
- Results showed high technical success rates (100%) with low mortality (0.8%) and similar reintervention and survival rates regardless of neck anatomy, while complications were slightly more frequent in the hostile neck group but did not significantly affect outcomes.
