  • Title: Multimodality imaging to diagnose pulmonary vein stenosis following atrial fibrillation ablation.
    Author: Mohsen A, Mazhari R, Reiner J.
    Journal: J Invasive Cardiol; 2011 Sep; 23(9):E214-5. PubMed ID: 21891815.
    Abstract:
    Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasing in prevalence. Although experienced centers performing radiofrequency pulmonary vein isolation procedures have reported success rates approaching 72%, in rare instances it is complicated by stenosis of one or more pulmonary veins. In this report we present a case of recurrent pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) following radiofrequency ablation for AF.
