The surgical treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH), with or without pulmonary artery aneurysm, has evolved during the last 40 years from heart-lung transplants to bilateral lung transplants as the treatment of choice for PH patients with preserved right and left ventricular function and without complex cardiac abnomalies.

Artery Reconstruction

Idiopathic pulmonary artery aneurysm rupture was diagnosed in a 79-year-old man who presented with a dry cough. He was considered unlikely to tolerate extensive pulmonary artery reconstruction or lung resection; hence, he was salvaged by timely ligation of the distal pulmonary artery at the origin of the aneurysm.
