Does acute pulmonary vein stenosis secondary to edema on immediate post ablation procedure CMR increase risk for development of chronic pulmonary vein stenosis

Authors: Dan Sommers, Eugene Kholmovski

Excerpt

Our hypothesis is that patients who demonstrate acute pulmonary vein narrowing or stenosis secondary to edema following radiofrequency ablation (RFA) procedure for atrial fibrillation as demonstrated on immediate post procedural cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) examination are at an increased risk for developing chronic pulmonary vein stenosis at 3 month followup CMR. …
