“…Most of the cases present with symptoms related to primary pulmonary disease or progressive PAH. Larger aneurysms were again noted to cause airway [34][35][36] or coronary artery compression. 37,38 In about 91% of the cases, the aneurysm was localized to main pulmonary artery, and two cases involved the distal vasculature.…”

Pulmonary artery aneurysm is a rare but important entity in the spectrum of pulmonary vascular diseases. The etiologies can be varied and patients can present with non-specific symptoms with the diagnosis being incidental. There is limited consensus regarding the diagnostic criteria and follow-up imaging for patients diagnosed with this entity. Further the management strategies can be variable depending upon underlying disease, etiology, center dependent expertise, and resources available. We review the etiologies, epidemiology, classification, clinical manifestations, and imaging features of pulmonary artery aneurysm. We also review the current management strategies and suggest an algorithmic approach to these patients.

“…This is a long‐standing question. Most of the limited evidence available supports prior heart valvular disease, in particular severe aortic or mitral diseases, as an absolute contraindication for lung transplantation, despite three decades of successfully treating heart valvular diseases . This is not attributed to technical complexity of such surgical procedures but likely because the physiological complexity and burden of concomitant heart valve surgeries with the risks inherent to lung transplantation are unanimously considered to be too excessive to be duly managed and yield acceptable transplant outcomes.…”

Summary In aging populations, many patients have multiple diseases characterized by acceleration of the aging process including cardiovascular diseases, metabolic diseases, and chronic kidney disease. Remarkable progress in minimally invasive, interventional therapies, such as percutaneous coronary intervention and transcatheter aortic valve replacement has enabled patients who were previously not transplant candidates because of co‐existing problems to become potentially viable candidates for lung transplantation. Recently, we have observed an outstanding and steady increase in patients older 70 years of age with multiple comorbidities who are referred to our high‐volume center as potential candidates for lung transplantation. However, the impact of diseases characterized by an accelerated aging process and their treatments on transplant outcomes remains unclear. This review aims to highlight these challenges in the current era of lung transplantation, review the prior literature, and discuss future directions with a multidisciplinary view including translational research, transplant medicine, and surgery, as well as from a programmatic and administrative standpoint.
