Bleeding pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm secondary to squamous cell lung cancer: computed tomography findings and endovascular management

Abstract: A case of bleeding pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm secondary to squamous cell lung cancer is reported. The patient presented with massive hemoptysis, diagnosis was made with multidetector computed tomography, and the pseudoaneurysm was successfully embolized with platinum coils. Hemoptysis ceased following the procedure.

“…(2) To our knowledge, only five previous reports have been published on spontaneous PAPs arising within primary lung neoplasms, with four of these five cases involving squamous cell carcinomas. (3)(4)(5)(6)(7) Various embolisation techniques for PAPs have been described in the literature. They usually involve either coil embolisation of the arterial branch supplying the aneurysmal sac (8) or filling of the sac itself with coils.…”

“…L'implication du réseau artériel pulmonaire a été suspectée cliniquement devant l'aspect noirâtre de l'hémoptysie, permettant de rattacher celle-ci au faux anévrisme. La survenue d'un faux anévrisme de l'artère pulmonaire dû à un cancer bronchique a été rapportée dans la littérature comme une cause rare d'hémoptysies à sang noir sévères [3][4][5]. La prise en charge diagnostique initiale d'une hémop-tysie repose sur la TDM thoracique qui permet de différencier les causes artérielles pulmonaires des causes artérielles bronchiques et de localiser le saignement [6,7].…”

“…Les algorithmes de décision thérapeutique publiés recommandent dans le cas d'hémoptysie massive d'origine artérielle pulmonaire un traitement chirurgical en urgence [6,7]. Cependant, il faut noter que de faux anévrismes sur cancer responsables d'hémoptysie massive ont été traités par embolisation avec succès [3][4][5]. En effet, l'artériographie est souvent réalisée dans le but de confirmer les résultats du scanner permettant alors une tentative d'embolisation.…”
