title: Development of high-output heart failure after correction of central venous occlusion: a case report.
abstract: Temporary or permanent central venous catheter (CVC) insertion has been performed frequently for hemodialysis treatment. One of the most important long-term complications of CVC is the central venous occlusion (CVO). Treatment of CVO consists of percutaneous angioplasty (PTA), PTA and stent implantation, or surgical procedure for resistant occlusions. Clinical outcome and long-term results of the revascularization procedures are well documented. However, there is no clear information about acute medical complications of the procedures. High-output heart failure (HOHF) is associated with several diseases including chronic anemia, psoriasis, systemic arteriovenous fistula, sepsis, hypercapnia, multiple myeloma, and hyperthyroidism. Herein, we report a case of chronic kidney disease with CVO that developed acute HOHF immediately after the revascularization procedure (PTA and stenting).
