“…Visible superficial collateral channels and respiratory and neurological symptom are also typical of SVCS. SVCS develops due to a stenosis of the SVC or due to a stenosis of both brachiocephalic veins, if it develops in spite of a patent vena cava (2). …”

Central venous catheters are the most frequent causes of benign central vein stenosis. We report the case of a 79-year-old woman on hemodialysis through a twin catheter in the right internal jugular vein, presenting with superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome with patent SVC. The clinically driven endovascular therapy was conducted to treat the venous syndrome with a unilateral left brachiocephalic stent-graft without manipulation of the well-functioning catheter. The follow-up was uneventful until death 94 months later.

“…15,17 SVC syndrome is diagnosed with a chest radiograph, CT, or MRI. 16,17,19 Further investigations to obtain tissue samples are necessary, including fine needle aspirates, bone marrow biopsies, or surgical interventions such as bronchoscopy, mediastinoscopy, thoracoscopy, or thoracotomy. If a benign tumor is the cause, surgical intervention may be required.…”

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. During the course of treatment, a cancer patient may present emergently to the hospital because of either the cancer itself or a manifestation of cancer therapy. Rarely, patients with cancer can present to the operating room with several emergent conditions that require the services of an anesthesiologist. The main oncologic emergencies affecting anesthesiologists relate to airway obstruction and cardiac-, neurologic-, gastrointestinal-, and endocrine-related conditions. Mismanagement of these crises can increase morbidity and mortality. This article addresses emergencies in patients with cancer and how they relate to anesthetic care.
