Abstract
Idiopathic dilatation of the pulmonary artery (IDPA) is an uncommon anomaly occurring in 0.6% of patients with congenital heart disease. IDPA is characterized by the enlargement of the main pulmonary artery with or without dilatation of the right and left pulmonary arteries. We describe 2D and Real-Time 3D Echocardiography findings in a young adult with IDPA. To the best of our knowledge this is the first case reporting all echocardiographic findings diagnostic for IDPA.
