| Abstract | Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome due to benign disease requires prompt and durable treatment because affected patients frequently have long life expectancies. While conservative management with head elevation and anticoagulation are first-line treatments, refractory symptoms may warrant intervention. The two main invasive treatments are percutaneous endovascular repair and open surgical reconstruction. Both have demonstrated efficacy over the mid term, but surgical reconstruction is the only method with proved patency over the long term. This report documents a case of a 26-year-old woman with SVC syndrome secondary to long-term indwelling central venous catheterization. SVC bypass was performed using the superficial femoral vein, and near-complete resolution of symptoms occurred within 1 week. Superficial femoral vein is a versatile conduit for SVC reconstruction and a useful alternative to spiral saphenous vein grafts, although mid- and long-term patency rates must be further studied. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
