Abstract

After cryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation, acute gastric hypomotility progressed to phytobezoar formation. The admission CT had already shown a mottled intragastric mass with entrapped gas, initially interpreted as retained food; when post‐ablation symptoms persist, clinicians should re‐examine the original imaging before escalating therapy.
