Chylopericardium and Superior Vena Cava Syndrome Caused by Central Venous Occlusion From Indwelling Hemodialysis Catheters.

Chylopericardium is a rare condition. Causes include superior vena cava syndrome resulting from indwelling catheters. We present a case of this condition in a 42-year-old man with end-stage renal disease treated with hemodialysis through a right subclavian vein catheter. He underwent successful endovascular stenting with resolution of his symptoms and chylopericardium.
