Initially superior vena cava obstruction is typically managed by an endovascular approach. However, in some patients, particularly those in whom angioplasty and stenting is not technically possible, or those who have recurrent disease after previous endovascular repair, an open surgical approach may be indicated. Conduit choices for caval reconstruction are less than ideal; hence we describe a case using a cryopreserved aortic allograft.
最初，上腔静脉阻塞通常采用血管内介入治疗。然而，在某些患者中，特别是那些血管成形术和支架置入术在技术上不可行的患者，或那些先前血管内修复后复发疾病的患者，可能需要开放手术治疗。腔静脉重建的移植物选择并不理想；因此，我们描述了一例使用冷冻保存的同种异体主动脉的病例。
