Abstract
We present a 70-year old patient who had congenital quadricuspid pulmonary valve and a giant 8.2-cm pulmonary artery (PA) aneurysm who underwent successful surgical repair under normothermic, beating heart cardiopulmonary bypass. We utilize computed axial tomography with three-dimensional reconstructions to diagnose and follow these patients. This case highlights our perioperative management and technique of repairing giant PA aneurysms.
