Treatment of SVC syndrome and hemoptysis in a patient with mediastinal fibrosis.

Abstract

Mediastinal fibrosis can present with a multitude of symptoms, most commonly cough, dyspnea and hemoptysis. We describe a case of mediastinal fibrosis secondary to histoplasmosis, which presented with both superior vena cava syndrome (SVCS) and hemoptysis. Our patient was successfully treated with bronchial artery embolization followed by SVC stent placement during a brief hospital stay.
