Non-specific symptoms of PV stenosis or occlusion, such as shortness of breath, fatigue, flu-like symptoms, reduced physical performance, and haemoptysis delay the diagnosis. If unusual symptoms appear abruptly after PV isolation, a PV stenosis should be considered. In this case, we describe for the first time a partially reversible consolidation of lung parenchyma following the revascularization of both PVs.
