Figure 10

The bare stent, which was placed first, was positioned at the inferior vena cava-right atrium junction ((a) anteroposterior and (b) lateral views on angiography). The decision was then made to position the lower end of the planned covered stent, which will be placed later, above the entrances of the right and also left hepatic veins (black arrow), and that the covered stent would overlap with the bare stent approximately 50%. It was also noted that the distal part of this covered stents should position just above the entrance of the right lower pulmonary vein (white arrow).
