Hemoptysis With Expulsion of Coil Fragments in a Patient With Aorto‐Bronchial Fistula of the Thoracic Descending Aorta
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Massive hemoptysis following TEVAR, especially in patients with prior coil embolization, should raise immediate suspicion for aortobronchial fistula. This rare but life-threatening condition demands prompt imaging, bronchoscopy, and often urgent surgical repair. Early multidisciplinary collaboration significantly improves prognosis.
