CAMPO-RIVERA, Natalia et al. Balloon angioplasty of pulmonary vein stenosis after percutaneous ablation of atrial fibrillation. Rev. Colomb. Cardiol. [online]. 2021, vol.28, n.5, pp.473-477. Epub 29-Nov-2021. ISSN 0120-5633. https://doi.org/10.24875/rccar.m21000086.
We report the case of a 31-year-old male patient with a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, who underwent a successful radiofrequency pulmonary vein ablation using EnSite three-dimensional mapping system. Three months after the procedure, patient presented with hemoptysis and pleuritic chest pain. A coronary computed tomography angiography was performed, which showed a severe left superior pulmonary vein stenosis and a moderate left inferior pulmonary vein stenosis. A balloon angioplasty was performed with subsequent restoration of pulmonary perfusion.
