description Correspondence to Kelly Alice Drivdahl Dougherty, kad418@nyu.edu Description A middle-aged former smoker with a medical history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) was transferred to our facility for management of a pulmonary artery aneurysm (PAA) found on CT scan of the chest. On admission to our centre, the patient’s blood pressure was 156/83 mm Hg, heart rate was 105 beats/min and oxygen saturation was 95% on 3 L/min oxygen by nasal cannula. CT scan of the chest revealed a right PAA 54.1 mm in anteroposterior diameter compressing the pulmonary vein and right bronchus, a right upper lobe consolidation and a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) measuring 18.4 mm (figures 1 and 2).
