Bilateral Lung transplantation for Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm with Severe
Pulmonary Hypertension: An Evolution or A Revolution?
Abstract
The surgical treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH), with or without
pulmonary artery aneurysm, has evolved during the last 40 years from
heart-lung transplants to bilateral lung transplants as the treatment of
choice for PH patients with preserved right and left ventricular
function and without complex cardiac abnomalies.
