Abstract
A 23 year-old Taiwanese male presented with complete membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava at its suprahepatic portion. After 3 angioplasty procedures using Inoue-balloon catheters, a Wall stent was deployed for restenosis 4 years after the first procedure. Venography at 6 months showed no significant restenosis. At 20 months transfemoral venography confirmed patency of the vena cava.
