Sumario:Pulmonary pseudoaneurysms (PAPs) are an uncommon complication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection, although they are a potentially life‐threatening condition. We present this interesting condition of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid‐19) pneumonia. The patient presented with abnormal lung nodule and developed massive haemoptysis after recovering from Covid‐19 pneumonia. PAP was diagnosed by computed tomography angiography. Endovascular embolization was performed and the bleeding was stopped.
