Abstract

A 39-year-old male patient presented for medical treatment with cough and minor hemoptysis for 3 days. Cardiac catheter ablation was successfully performed in another hospital 1 week ago. An emergency pulmonary CT examination revealed diffuse ground glass exudation and consolidation of the left lower lung, and a contrast-enhanced cardiovascular CT confirmed occlusion of the left lower pulmonary vein. Occluded pulmonary veins were successfully opened by balloon dilation and stent placement.
