Multimodality imaging assessment of anatomic and functional pulmonary vein stenosis.
A 68-year-old man with a history of permanent atrial fibrillation and symptoms of fatigue and palpitations underwent pulmonary vein ablation under intracardiac echocardiography and NAVX system 3D mapping guidance. He noticed improvement in his symptoms after the procedure and remained in sinus rhythm on follow-up arrhythmia monitoring. However, symptoms of shortness of breath and a nonproductiv...
متن کاملMultimodality imaging of isolated bicuspid pulmonary valve leading to pulmonary stenosis
Isolated bicuspid pulmonary valve is a rare arterial valve anomaly with very few reports in the literature. It is usually in association with other congenital cardiac lesions. However, the true incidence of bicuspid pulmonary valve could be underestimated because of the difficulty in imaging pulmonary valve morphology with conventional two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography. A 21-year-o...
متن کاملbubbles in pericardial fluid: multimodality imaging in iatrogenic hydropneumopericardium
introduction the term hydropneumopericardium describes the simultaneous accumulation of fluid and gas in the pericardial sac. this condition is mostly caused by primary infiltrative lesions from the adjacent organs, pericardial infections, or trauma and is a very rare situation, usually with favorable outcomes. case presentation we describe a female patient with lutembacher’s syndrome complicat...
متن کاملMultimodality imaging of anomalous pulmonary veins
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) is an extremely rare congenital condition where one or more of the pulmonary veins are connected to the venous circulation. Although initially suspected with unexplained right ventricular enlargement on transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), cardiac MRI is able to delineate the anatomical variant. We present a case of a 65-year-old male diagn...
متن کاملPulmonary Vein Stenosis Mimicking Nonspecific Interstitial Pneumonia
Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a known complication after catheter ablation of arrhythmias. Surprisingly, little information is available on its manifestations in the lung. We describe the case of a 39-year-old woman who presented from an outside hospital with worsening shortness of breath after catheter ablation of pulmonary veins for atrial fibrillation. After an initial diagnosis of pneumo...
