Pulmonary vein stenosis or occlusion resulting from radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation can be mistakenly diagnosed as pneumonia: a case report

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
The increased use of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) has led to a rise in cases of pulmonary vein stenosis or occlusion (PVS/O) as a complication.

Percutaneous revascularization of a chronic total occlusion of the left lower pulmonary vein.

The Journal of invasive cardiology, 2014
Pulmonary vein stenosis occurs in 1.3% of patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation procedures for atrial fibrillation. Complete occlusion can occur and is often associated with symptoms including dyspnea and chest pain. Percutaneous intervention with angioplasty and stenting is frequently performed for pulmonary vein stenosis, but management of ...

Pulmonary tuberculosis presenting with central retinal vein occlusion [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2007
Tuberculosis remains a major international public health concern, with the global incidence rate increasing approximately 0.4% per year, but much faster in sub-Saharan Africa and Eastern Europe;1 the effect that HIV has on incidence is also highly significant.2 Within the UK the incidence of tuberculosis varies considerably between regions and ethnic ...
