Respiratuar distress due to giant innominate artery aneurysm
Abstract
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.

Özet
İnnominate arter anevrizmaları nadir görülmekte olup sıklıkla ateroskleroz ve sifilize bağlı olarak ortaya çıkmakta, daha az oranda Takayasu hastalığı, kronik disseksiyonlar, bakteriyal enfeksiyonlar ve kollajen doku hastalıkları ile beraber görülebilir. Göğüs ağrısı, horlama, nefes darlığı ve yutkunma zorluğu hastanın şikayetleri arasında yer alır. Bazıları asemptomatik seyreder ve çekilen akciğer grafileri sonucunda tesadüfen tespit edilir. Biz tromboze olmuş dev bir innominate arter anevrizmasına bağlı olarak trakea ve iki ana bronşta basıya neden olan bir olguyu sunduk. Ciddi şekilde trakeada basıya neden olan hastaların tedavisinde medikal, cerrahi ve girişimsel işlemlerin hepsinin yer aldığı multidisipliner bir yaklaşım tercih edilmelidir.
