Mediastinal aneurysms of the bronchial arteries are uncommon abnormalities with potentially fatal hemorrhagic complications. Their diagnosis is usually made by angiography in emergency situations but computed tomography (CT) scan may depict them in asymptomatic patients. We describe the CT appearance of such an aneurysm detected as an incidental finding in a patient with bleeding bronchiectasis.
支气管动脉纵隔动脉瘤是一种罕见的异常情况,可伴有潜在致命的出血并发症。其诊断通常在紧急情况下通过血管造影进行,但计算机断层扫描(CT)可能在无症状患者中显示出这些动脉瘤。我们描述了在一名患有出血性支气管扩张的患者中偶然发现的此类动脉瘤的CT表现。
