Abstract:To the radiologist, complications of lung transplant are believed to occur along a time continuum, which is key given the nonspecific clinical and imaging findings.

Early recognition is paramount due to the high morbidity and mortality of such a complication. This case highlights some imaging manifestations of the pulmonary artery.
