We report a case of superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome that was assessed by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). A highly echogenic eccentric lesion was demonstrated by IVUS. The use of IVUS also confirmed in vivo that SVC syndrome following pacemaker insertion occurs as a result of intimal thickening of the venous wall.
我们报告了一例通过血管内超声（IVUS）评估的上腔静脉（SVC）综合征病例。IVUS显示出一个高回声偏心性病变。IVUS的应用还在体内证实，起搏器植入后发生的SVC综合征是静脉壁内膜增厚所致。
