          Abstract

          Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasing in prevalence. Although experienced centers performing radiofrequency pulmonary vein isolation procedures have reported success rates approaching 72%, in rare instances it is complicated by stenosis of one or more pulmonary veins. In this report we present a case of recurrent pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) following radiofrequency ablation for AF.
