Ascitic pseudocyst obstructing superior vena cava as a complication of a peritoneo-venous shunt.

P Unger, R M Moran.   

Abstract

A pseudocystic mass obstructing the superior vena cava is described as a complication of a LeVeen peritoneo-venous shunt. This unusual complication is thought to result from a foreign body reaction to the tubing in conjunction with the low flow though the tubing.
