Abstract
Chronic venous obstructions resulting from indwelling lines, surgery and instrumentation, and congenital anomalies are increasingly common in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) and other chronic illnesses. Venous obstruction results in threatened long-term vascular access and congestive symptoms. Endovascular therapies are safe and can be effective at rehabilitating obstructed and even occluded veins. The risk of recurrent obstruction is high, however. Post-rehabilitation monitoring and anticoagulation therapy are important, and reinterventions are common. Here, the authors describe techniques to address a variety of venous obstruction lesions that may be encountered in CHD patients and provide illustrative cases.

Difficult Vascular Access in Children with Short Bowel Syndrome: What to Do Next? CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 9:children9050688. [PMID: 35626867 PMCID: PMC9139311 DOI: 10.3390/children9050688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Short Bowel Syndrome and intestinal failure are chronic and severe conditions that may require life-long parenteral nutrition in children. Survival of these children rely on the correct functioning of central venous catheters; therefore, careful management, prevention, and treatment of complications is of paramount importance. Despite a growing awareness of preserving the vascular real estate, a certain number of patients still experience a progressive and life-threatening exhaustion of vascular access. We searched the literature to highlight the current management of children with vascular exhaustion, specifically focusing on vascular access salvage strategies and last-resource alternative routes to central veins. Given the paucity of data, results are reported in the form of a narrative review.

Abstract
Children with chronic illness often require prolonged or repeated venous access. They remain at high risk for venous catheter-related complications (high-risk patients), which largely derive from elective decisions during catheter insertion and continuing care. These complications result in progressive loss of the venous capital (patent and compliant venous pathways) necessary for delivery of life-preserving therapies. A nonstandardized, episodic, isolated approach to venous care in these high-need, high-cost patients is too often the norm, imposing a disproportionate burden on affected persons and escalating costs. This state-of-the-art review identifies known failure points in the current systems of venous care, details the elements of an individualized plan of care, and emphasizes a patient-centered, multidisciplinary, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to care in these vulnerable populations. These guidelines are intended to enable every practitioner in every practice to deliver better care and better outcomes to these patients through awareness of critical issues, anticipatory attention to meaningful components of care, and appropriate consultation or referral when necessary.

Protein-losing enteropathy in biventricular circulation precipitated by mild stenosis of the inferior caval vein in conjunction with total occlusion of the superior caval vein: a word of caution. Cardiol Young 2017; 27:1430-1433.

Abstract
We report the case of a young boy with a history of total occlusion of the superior caval vein, diagnosed early after complex neonatal cardiac surgery, who developed severe protein-losing enteropathy. Protein-losing enteropathy was precipitated by a relatively mild stenosis at the junction of the inferior caval vein with the right atrium. Percutaneous stent dilation of the veno-atrial junction definitively relieved the stenosis, and the protein-losing enteropathy subsequently resolved.

Abstract
Stenting of vascular, extracardiac or lately intracardiac stenosis has become an established interventional treatment for a variety of problems in congenital or acquired heart disease. Most stent procedures are completed successfully and the long-term outcome is favorable in the majority of cases. Stent collapse or deformation is a well recognized entity in peripheral stents and can be attributed to insufficient radial force; it can also be attributed to excessive external forces, like deformation of stents in the right ventricular outflow tract, where external compression is combined with continuous movement caused by the beating heart. The protection of the thoracic cage may prove to be insufficient in extraordinary circumstances, such as chest compression in trauma or cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). In this case series, we describe three patients in whom large endovascular stents were placed to treat significant stenosis of the aorta, the aortic arch or the venous system of the inferior vena cava close to the atrium. In all patients, CPR was necessary during their clinical course for various reasons; after adequate CPR, including appropriate chest compression all patients survived the initial resuscitation phase. Clinical, echocardiographic as well as radiologic re-evaluation after resuscitation revealed significant stent distortion, compression, displacement or additional vascular injury. The possibility of mechanical deformation of large endovascular stents needs to be considered and recognized when performing CPR; if CPR is successful, immediate re-evaluation of the implanted stents--if possible by biplane fluoroscopy--seems mandatory.
