Patients with malignancy who develop superior vena cava
(SVC) obstruction may require stenting to relieve their
symptoms. Some of these individuals also have an indwelling chemoport for concomitant chemotherapy. We
present a case where stenting was accomplished after
catheter-assisted deflection of the chemoport catheter
tubing via a single groin access. It can save procedure time
whilst salvaging the device.
