Pulmonary Stenosis after Ablation

Pulmonary Stenosis after Ablation

Is pulmonary stenosis a risk that can happen with Pulmonary Vein Ablation or is it a risk factor for ablation of AV Node Reentry as well? My EP did not mention that risk factor at all prior to my decision to have an ablation. Any input would be welcome.

Mary: No fear of stenosis with what you had. The stenosis risk lies with Afib ablations of the pulmonary veins. Yours was a short distance away, but had nothing to do with the pulmonary veins. That's why your doc never mentioned it to you.
How is everything coming along? Are you having PACs or feeling any arrhythmias.

Hope this finds you well, Mary,
Pam
