The article presents a case study of a 33-year-old male diagnosed with superior vena cava obstruction (SVCO) caused by mediastinal tuberculosis, a rare benign etiology of this condition. It highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges faced, particularly the successful endovascular stenting procedure combined with anti-tubercular therapy, which resolved the patient's symptoms.
