Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm as a Cause of Massive Hemoptysis: Diagnosis and Management
Figure 1
(a) Lung CT demonstrates bilateral nodular infiltrates with a left lower lobe cavity containing hematoma from active pulmonary tuberculosis. (b) Contrast CT demonstrates focal contrast enhancement in the left lower lobe pulmonary aneurysm (arrow). (c) Selective left lower pulmonary arteriogram demonstrates the saccular Rasmussen aneurysm with a narrow neck. (d) Post embolization pulmonary angiogram demonstrates occlusion of the neck of the aneurysm with a single steel coil with residual contrast within the aneurysm.
