We present six cases of superior vena cava syndrome caused by a malignant tumor that were treated by percutaneous endoprostheses. The technique is described and the results evaluated. In one case there was acute thrombosis of the endoprosthesis that was treated by urokinase. No other complications were observed. A patient died one month later due to progression of the tumor. The remaining cases were asymptomatic for longer than 6 months. It was concluded that endoprostheses for superior vena cava syndrome are efficient, with quick improvement of the symptomatology.
我们介绍了6例由恶性肿瘤引起的上腔静脉综合征患者，这些患者接受了经皮血管内支架植入术治疗。描述了该技术并评估了结果。其中1例患者出现了血管内支架急性血栓形成，采用尿激酶进行了治疗。未观察到其他并发症。1例患者在1个月后因肿瘤进展死亡。其余患者无症状超过6个月。结论是，用于治疗上腔静脉综合征的血管内支架有效，能迅速改善症状。
