description Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm is an uncommon and potentially fatal abnormality. It has been described from a wide variety of etiologies, including infectious, iatrogenic, neoplastic, congenital, and traumatic causes. There are currently no published consensus guidelines for the diagnostic testing and management of pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm. This case report presents an uncommon case of pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm emerging from a non-small cell lung cancer that was successfully managed using coil embolization.
