Abstract
- We reported a case of pseudoaneurysm in the upper lobar branch of the right pulmonary artery, which was caused by a fungus ball within the progressive massive fibrosis (PMF) in a patient with pneumoconiosis. Coil embolization of the pseudoaneurysm initially stopped the bleeding. After right upper lobe lobectomy to prevent the recurrent hemoptysis, pathology confirmed pseudoaneurysm within the PMF due to aspergilloma.
