Case 281: Thoracic Air Leak Syndrome in a Patient with Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation and Graft-versus-Host Disease.

abstract：:A 40-year-old man with a history of tuberculosis developed massive hemoptysis. Embolization of a bronchial artery branch did not resolve the bleeding. Selective angiography eventually revealed three pseudoaneurysms arising from an apical segmental branch of the right pulmonary artery, two of which were successfully em...
