    Abstract:
    Recently developed expandable metallic stents have been adopted to superior vena cava syndrome with good results. We inserted stents into the superior vena cava in 4 patients with superior vena cava syndrome. The results were comfortable and no complications. We should consider the stenting as the first choice for superior vena cava syndrome.
