Successful Treatment of Superior Vena Cava Syndrome in a Infant with Short Bowel Syndrome and Daily Parenteral Nutrition Dependency

Background: Superior Vena Cava Syndrome (SVCS) is a critical complication associated with prolonged central venous access, particularly in children with intestinal failure requiring long-term parenteral nutrition (PN). Chronic central venous catheter (CVC) use significantly increases the risk of thrombosis, leading to venous obstruction and impaired thoracic and cerebral circulation. Early diagnosis and intervention are essential to improve clinical outcomes for affected patients.
