title: Hemodynamic changes after self-expandable metallic stent therapy for vena cava syndrome.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  We examined changes in hemodynamics after self-expandable metallic stent placement in the vena cava.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The rapid increase in venous return immediately after expandable metallic stent placement influenced the hemodynamics of the circulatory system.
