Pulmonary artery aneurysm is a rare clinical condition. It is known to be associated with certain congenital or acquired conditions, yet its etiology is not well understood. Its diagnosis is often not challenging. However, controversy still remains regarding its treatment. We report a case of idiopathic pulmonary artery aneurysm treated by surgical correction.
