Superior vena caval obstruction by lipomatous hypertrophy of the right atrium.

R F McNamara1, A E Taylor, B J Panner.   

Abstract

A structural abnormality was suspected when passage of a Swan-Ganz catheter was obstructed at the distal superior vena cava (SVC). At autopsy, lipomatous hypertrophy of the right atrium markedly narrowed the lumen at the SVC-right atrial junction.
