Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm due to bronchial carcinoma
Abstract
A case of pseudoaneurysm of the pulmonary artery due to squamous cell bronchial carcinoma is reported. This complication of bronchial carcinoma has not been described previously. The patient presented with severe haemoptysis and the diagnosis was made using CT and pulmonary angiography. The pulmonary artery feeding the aneurysm was embolized with tungsten coils. Haemoptysis ceased following this intervention.
