Pulmonary Artery Aneurysms

Report of a Case Treated by Surgical Intervention

BRIAN BLADES M.D.¹; WILLIAM FORD M.D.¹; PATRICK CLARK M.D.¹

¹ From the Department of Surgery, The George Washington University School of Medicine, Washington, D. C.

The successful surgical treatment of an aneurysm of the left main pulmonary artery is reported. It appears that, after ligation of the main pulmonary artery, it is desirable not to remove the lung but preserve it as a space occupying organ which will retain some function. Literature on the subject of pulmonary aneurysms is reviewed.
