Pulmonary artery aneurysm (PAA) is a rare entity with fatal complications. Its silent course contributes to large aneurysms with compression symptoms. We present a 39-year-old female idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension patient with a giant PAA causing severe pulmonary regurgitation (PR) and symptomatic left main coronary artery compression (LMCA). Since she had a failed LMCA stenting attempt, she underwent surgery. A valve-sparing David-like pulmonary trunk reconstruction and coronary artery bypass were performed. This case illustrates that David-like reconstruction procedure can be applied to the PAA with severe PR.
肺动脉瘤(PAA)是一种罕见的疾病,可导致致命并发症。其隐匿的病程会导致动脉瘤增大并出现压迫症状。我们报告一例39岁的特发性肺动脉高压女性患者,患有巨大PAA,导致严重的肺动脉反流(PR)和有症状的左主冠状动脉压迫(LMCA)。由于她左主冠状动脉支架置入术失败,因此接受了手术。进行了保留瓣膜的类David肺动脉干重建和冠状动脉搭桥术。该病例表明,类David重建手术可应用于伴有严重PR的PAA。
