Endovascular Treatment of Bronchial Artery Aneurysm With Aortic Stent-Graft Placement and Coil Embolization

Bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) represents a rare, but dangerous, pathology because its rupture can cause a life-threatening hemorrhage; opportune treatment is mandatory when a definite diagnosis is obtained. There are several reports of endovascular treatment of BAA with transcatheter arterial embolization and only few cases treated with aortic stent-graft exclusion. We report a case of mediastinal BAA close to thoracic aorta treated with a combined approach of stent-graft occlusion of the inflow and coil embolization of the outflow arteries.
