  • Title: Aneurysm of the pulmonary trunk with patent arterial duct.
    Author: Alva C, Argüero R, Valero G.
    Journal: Cardiol Young; 1999 Jan; 9(1):70-2. PubMed ID: 10323544.
    Abstract:
    We present a 14-year-old female with a massive aneurysm of the pulmonary trunk occurring secondary to bacterial endocarditis of the patent arterial duct. Echo Doppler imaging, magnetic resonance and angiography confirmed the diagnosis. On intermediate follow-up after surgical correction, the echo studies and cardiac catheterization disclosed no residual lesions. The patient is now asymptomatic.
