Respiratuar distress due to giant innominate artery aneurysm
شماره ركورد

Abstract
Innominate artery aneurysms are rare and described in relation to atherosclerosis or syphilis and, to a lesser extent, to Takayasu disease, trauma, chronic dissection, bacterial infection, and collagen disorders. Chest pain, hoarseness, dyspnea, and dysphagia are among the complaints. Some of them are asymptomatic and are revealed by a chest X-ray incidentally. We presented a giant innominate artery aneurysm with trombosis which compressed the trachea and two main bronchus. A multidisciplinary approach as medical, surgical, and interventional pulmonology options should be considered for the patients with serious tracheal compression.
