Core Tip	Pulmonary vein thrombosis (PVT) is a rare but potentially life-threatening disease entity. Its signs and symptoms are often non-specific and it can be difficult to diagnose unless there is a high index of clinical suspicion. Misdiagnosis can lead to grave consequences. We describe a case of PVT in the setting of polycythemia vera. The patient had presented with symptoms of pleuritic chest pain and the workup revealed a thrombus in the left inferior pulmonary vein. This association of polycythemia vera with PVT has not been reported in the literature previously. The PVT is a less known disease process and with this manuscript, we would like to briefly review its causes, presentation and treatment options.
