Case Report: Combined transcatheter arterial embolization and aortic stent-graft have better efficacy for bronchial artery aneurysms

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is a rare and fatal condition that requires immediate treatment. In the present case, a 76-year-old hypertensive woman was admitted with dizziness and diagnosed with an unruptured bronchial artery aneurysm, which was treated by transcatheter arterial embolization and aortic stent-graft.
