Percutaneous angioplasty for the management of iatrogenic pulmonary vein stenosis: a case series and brief review

Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a rare complication following pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation.

We present two cases of iatrogenic PVS, successfully managed with balloon angioplasty and stenting. Both patients experienced significant symptom relief and improved functional status following the intervention.

We highlight the importance of early recognition and intervention in PVS, as well as the complexities involved in long-term management, including surveillance strategies and restenosis prevention.
