摘要：

Tuberculous aneurysms of the aorta need early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention because if untreated, they lead to severe consequences. We report herein, a case of a 63 year old woman who underwent successful resection of a tuberculous pseudoaneurysm which had ruptured into the left upper lobe of the lung after a punch biopsy, performed under bronchoscopy, had caused severe bleeding. Subsequent CT and MRI examinations suggested a fistula between the mass and the aorta and proved useful in establishing the diagnosis of a pseudoaneurysm. We wish to emphasize the need for bronchoscopy to be done carefully because of the risk of inducing massive hemoptysis. © 1990 The Japan Surgical Society.
