Percutaneous treatment of symptomatic superior mesenteric vein stenosis using self-expanding nitinol stents

Highlights • Stenosis of the SMV is uncommon and experience in stent placement is very limited. • We analyzed the success of transhepatic SMV stenting of 6 patients. • Stenting of the SMV was technically and clinically successful in all patients. • We recommend oversizing of self-expanding nitinol s...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Stenosis of the SMV is uncommon and experience in stent placement is very limited. • We analyzed the success of transhepatic SMV stenting of 6 patients. • Stenting of the SMV was technically and clinically successful in all patients. • We recommend oversizing of self-expanding nitinol stents by 50% (min 10 mm).
