  • Title: Aneurysm of main pulmonary artery in a neonate with airway obstruction and heart failure: long-term survival after pulmonary artery aneurysmectomy and patent ductus arteriosus ligation.
    Author: Balsara RK, O'Riordan AC, Sanchez GR, Dunn JM.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 1985 Feb; 39(2):177-9. PubMed ID: 3970613.
    Abstract:
    A neonate was seen with complete atelectasis of the left lung secondary to compression of the left main bronchus by a congenital aneurysmal main pulmonary artery. Operation consisted of pulmonary artery aneurysmectomy and ligation of an associated patent ductus arteriosus. Follow-up (3 years after operation) demonstrated complete resolution of the atelectasis and congestive heart failure.
