1 Complicated emergent endovascular repair of a life-threatening bilateral internal jugular vein occlusion Stephanie Kwei, MD, Takao Ohki, MD, Johnathan eitler, MD, and Frank J. Veith, MD, ronx, NY 62-year-old woman had painful facial swelling that progressed to extensive periorbital and perioral edema with loss of vision, hearing, and consciousness. Her past surgical history was significant for right radical neck dissection including internal jugular vein (IJV) resection, laryngectomy, partial esophagectomy, tracheoesophageal fistula repair, and tracheostomy for squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx. In addition, the patient had received radiation therapy to the neck. venogram revealed occlusion of the left IJV. guidewire from the femoral vein was passed through the occluded segment; however, attempts to introduce an angioplasty balloon failed. percutaneous basilic vein approach allowed passage of a dilator sheath over a guidewire, thereby enabling Wallstent deployment across the IJV occlusion. second Wallstent was inserted across a stenosis in the brachiocephalic vein; however, this second stent reoccluded the IJV. Surgical removal of the second Wallstent was required through a segmental claviculectomy and venotomy. Patency was restored in the IJV and the brachiocephalic vein with the return of baseline neurologic function. This case demonstrates a complicated emergent endovascular repair of a life-threatening IJV occlusion that required surgical salvage. (J Vasc Surg 2000;32: ) ilateral internal jugular vein (IJV) occlusion is a lifethreatening condition associated with cerebral edema, elevated intracranial pressure, venous thrombosis, and head and neck edema. 1,2 For these reasons, the patency of the contralateral IJV and vertebral veins after radical neck dissection and IJV resection is of critical importance. In this report, we describe a patient with contralateral IJV occlusion who was seen 2 years after a radical neck dissection and IJV resection for squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx. We report a complicated emergent endovascular repair of a life-threatening IJV occlusion that required surgical salvage. CSE REPORT 62-year-old woman had painful facial swelling for a 2-week duration. She had noted increasing difficulty opening her left eye and gradual extension of swelling to the left From the Division of Vascular Surgery, Montefiore Medical Center. Competition of interest: nil.

Her surgical history included a right radical neck dissection with IJV resection, laryngectomy, proximal esophagectomy, tracheoesophageal fistula repair, and tracheostomy for squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx 2 years before presentation. The patient also received postoperative chemotherapy and radiation therapy consisting of 60 Gy delivered to the neck for 6 weeks. On physical examination, the patient was afebrile, with her left eye swollen shut and significant periorbital edema in the right eye. The perioral region and tongue showed marked edema that extended to the patient s neck. The neck demonstrated a flexion contracture, and the patient breathed through a tracheostomy (Fig 1, ). Duplex scanning of the neck was not possible because of the patient s flexion contracture and edema; however, a computed tomography scan showed left IJV and vertebral vein occlusion. These venous occlusions were thought to result from fibrosis that arose from previous radiation therapy. The patient was referred to interventional vascular radiology, and a venogram was performed from the femoral vein. The venogram demonstrated an occluded left IJV with minimal collateral circulation through the anterior and external jugular veins (Fig 2, ). lthough a guidewire (300-cm, in Roadrunner; Cook, loomington, Ill) was successfully passed across the lesion, it was not possible to pass a coronary angioplasty balloon (3-mm 2-cm Savvy; Cordis, Warren, NJ) because of extensive fibrosis and remote access (Fig 2, ). Further attempts to recanalize the IJV were aborted. The patient s facial swelling continued to worsen, with loss of hearing 397

The patient was referred to interventional neuroradiology; however, any further treatment was deferred. Surgical bypass grafting of the IJV was then considered. However, the flexion contracture of the neck prohibited adequate access and exposure to the intracranial IJV. In addition, the patient s surgical history, tracheostomy, and previous radiation therapy further prohibited an operative approach. n endovascular procedure was the only possibility for recanalization of the occluded IJV. The patient was taken to the operating room where a 7-French rite tip Cordis sheath was placed percutaneously in the left basilic vein. The IJV obstruction was traversed with a directional catheter and hydrophilic guidewire. Pressures from the intracranial IJV measured 60 cm of water. fter guidewire passage, the sheath was passed across the lesion with its dilator (Fig 3, ). The dilator was removed, and an 8 80-mm Wallstent (Schneider, Minneapolis, Minn) was deployed from the intracranial IJV to the subclavian vein. completion venogram showed revascularization of the IJV, but the brachiocephalic vein was stenotic and proximal to the IJV (Fig 3, ). Therefore, a second Wallstent (8 40 mm) was inserted across the stenosis extending from the brachiocephalic vein to the subclavian vein. ecause the second stent crossed the orifice of the IJV, it reoccluded the IJV (Fig 4, ). It was decided that surgical removal of the second Wallstent was required to restore patency of the IJV. 10- cm incision was made over the clavicle, and a 4-cm segmental claviculectomy was performed. The subclavian vein was exposed, and a venotomy was made. Proximal and distal control was obtained with Fogarty balloon catheters, and the Wallstent was removed by pulling each wire individually. The venotomy was closed with a Hemashield patch (Meadox, Oakland, NJ). This restored patency in the IJV, brachiocephalic vein, and subclavian vein, as demonstrated by a completion venogram (Fig 4, ). The patient was anticoagulated, and a computed tomography of the head and neck performed 3 days later showed a patent IJV. ll symptoms resolved with the return of baseline neurologic function after recanalization of the IJV (Fig 1, ). Subsequent images of the IJV were not obtained because of poor patient follow-up. The patient died 7 months later of pneumonia with no recurrence of facial edema or neurologic changes. DISCUSSION This case demonstrates a complicated emergent endovascular repair of a life-threatening IJV occlusion that required surgical salvage. Given this patient s history of multiple operations and radiation therapy to the neck, surgical repair of the intracranial IJV obstruction was not a viable option. n endovascular procedure provided the only chance of venous recanalization and survival for this patient. The treatment of spontaneous venous thrombosis has traditionally consisted of anticoagulation and thrombolytic therapy. The recanalization of thrombosed veins and the development of collateral circulation may be prompt; however, subsequent evalua-

IJV, Internal jugular vein. tion frequently reveals recurrent stenoses. Thus, the efficacy of anticoagulants and thrombolytics alone remains questionable. Older lesions consisting of organized platelet and fibrin deposits have demonstrated resistance to fibrinolytic agents. 3 Successful initial results have been reported with venous balloon angioplasty. However, the incidence of recurrence is also high because of the venous elastic recoil and poor remodeling properties. 4 Glanz et al 5 reported a series of 19 patients who received percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for venous occlusion resulting from hemodialysis shunts. The rate of recurrent stenoses was high, with only 35% patency after a year; additional intervention was required. lthough the management of subclavian vein thrombosis is well described, there is little reported in the literature addressing the appropriate treatment of IJV thrombosis. The use of endovascular stents in the venous system has been described at several anatomic sites for the management of venous stenoses and occlusions. 6,7 Most reported cases of venous occlusion treated with endovascular repair are related to patients who require long-term catheterization or hemodialysis Venous stenting has also been described for the management of malignant superior vena cava syndrome, 11 cerebrovascular dural sinus occlusion, 12 and subclavian vein obstruction due to symptomatic effort thrombosis. 5,13 The use of thrombolytic agents in conjunction with stent placement has been described for refractory malignant superior vena cava occlusion. 14,15 In one series, 17 patients with central venous obstruction resulting from hemodialysis access with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stent implantation were treated. oth Wallstents and Palmaz stents were used, but four patients (24%) required surgical bypass salvage because of occlusion and failure to recanalize. 16 Duke et al 17 described a case of nonpenetrating traumatic bilateral IJV thromboses treated with catheter-directed thrombolysis and Wallstent implantation. The patient was an 18-year-old man who had diffuse edema of the face and scalp in an obtunded state. The authors used a femoral vein approach and infused urokinase into the sigmoid sinus. Wallstent was then deployed in the left IJV, which immediately reduced intracranial hypertension and gradually restored the patient s level of consciousness. To our knowledge, this is the only other case in the literature reporting Wallstent placement in the IJV that is unrelated to chronic catheterization. In our patient, restoration of the IJV succeeded only with a basilic vein puncture site because previous attempts through the femoral vein had failed. The proximity of the basilic vein to the IJV enabled greater control, manipulation, and pushability of

Wallstents were chosen over Palmaz stents for their length, flexibility, and ability to maneuver through tortuous venous anatomy. These stents are also capable of correcting vascular kinking, thus improving luminal narrowing and reducing turbulent hemodynamics. One disadvantage of using the Wallstent is the difficulty in predicting the placement of its trailing end. In this case, perhaps a nonforeshortening self-expandable stent such as the Symphony (SC, oston Scientific Corp,
5 JOURNL OF VSCULR SURGERY Volume 32, Number 2 Kwei et al 401 Natick, Mass) or SMRT (Cordis) stent would have been more suitable. stent placed entirely within the IJV might have avoided surgery. The use of endovascular stents for the treatment of venous occlusion has yet to be established because the longterm consequences of stent placement in the venous system remain unknown. However, the use of endovascular stents for patients who are otherwise untreatable, such as this patient, appears justified. In retrospect, deployment of the second Wallstent was probably unnecessary, and the temptation to correct a stenosis found incidentally on a venogram should have been resisted. The additional attempt to treat the narrowing of the brachiocephalic vein with a second stent compromised our initially successful results and required surgical stent removal. Surgical removal of the second Wallstent offered the only possibility for restoring IJV patency. This case demonstrates how endovascular and surgical techniques used in conjunction were successful in salvaging our patient s life threatening IJV occlusion. REFERENCES 1. Isenberg SF.
