Multiple aetiologies have been described in the literature including congenital or acquired pulmonary vein stenosis secondary to surgical or radiofrequency ablation or other cardiac interventions. We present a case of a 60-year-old female with a history of systemic hypertension, hypothyroidism and sick sinus syndrome, who presented with intermittent episodes of dry cough and haemoptysis. A diagnostic workup revealed circumferential bronchial thickening and pulmonary vein stenosis on contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography (CT). Bronchoscopic findings confirmed the presence of bronchial varices, which was secondary to the Radiofrequency ablation she underwent 7 years ago. This case highlights the diagnostic challenge posed by bronchial varices and underscores the importance of a comprehensive approach in managing such rare presentations.</p>","PeriodicalId":47462,"journal":{"name":"Lung India","volume":"41 5","pages":"366-370"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11472986/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142113416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
