Pulmonary hemorrhage due to pulmonary venous occlusion after radiofrequency catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation.
A recent worldwide survey reported that the frequency of PV stenoses requiring intervention was 0.29% [1] . Packer et al. [2] reported that only 1 case had hemoptysis in 23 patients with PV stenosis after ablation. An early diagnosis using multi-detector cardiac CT or dynamic MRI after ablation is the diagnostic modality of choice. Although angioplasty was not applied in either case, the Case 1...
متن کاملClinical Features of Acute Massive Pulmonary Embolism Complicated by Radiofrequency Ablation: An Observational Study.
Although pulmonary embolism (PE) complicated by radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is rare, it can be life-threatening. Our goal was to elucidate the clinical features of acute massive PE after RFCA. Of 2386 patients who underwent RFCA for supraventricular tachycardia or idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia, 4 patients (0.16%) whose cases were complicated by acute massive PE were examined. Th...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of pulmonary tumours: current status
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for thoracic tumours has emerged as a minimally invasive therapy option for primary and secondary lung tumours and has gained increasing acceptance for pain palliation. The procedure is well tolerated and the complication rates are low. RFA provides the opportunity for localized tissue destruction of limited tumour volumes with medium and long term follow-up data s...
متن کاملPulmonary radiofrequency ablation (Part 1): current state.
The risks involved in surgical treatment and conventional radiotherapy in patients with early lung cancer or lung metastases often make these treatments difficult to justify. However, on the other hand, it is also unacceptable to allow these lesions to evolve freely because, left untreated, these neoplasms will usually lead to the death of the patient. In recent years, alternative local therapi...
متن کاملPulmonary Vein Stenosis Complicating Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation
The aim of this study is to characterize the clinical manifestations and features of pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) by retrospectively analyzing clinical data of patients in addition to reviewing the literature simultaneously to improve the understanding of PVS complicating radiofrequency catheter ablation and to provide evidence for early diagnosis and timely treatment. Clinical, imaging, and f...
