Pulmonary artery aneurysm: case report and experience of our center

Abstract

This is a case report about pulmonary artery aneurysm. Surgery is inadequate for patients with severe primary pulmonary hypertension, in whom there is widespread injury to the pulmonary arterioles; in these patients the only solution is lung transplantation. Surgery is recommended in cases of aneurysm with moderate pulmonary hypertension.
