Use of an Amplatzer ASD Occlusion Device for the Closure of an Ascending Aortic Pseudoaneurysm Presenting as Hemoptysis
Aortic pseudoaneurysms can commonly be caused by previous thoracic surgery, trauma, and infection, quickly becoming life-threatening if ruptured. This pathology is typically asymptomatic and incidentally found on imaging; however, few cases have outlined hemoptysis as a presenting symptom for aortic...

| description | Aortic pseudoaneurysms can commonly be caused by previous thoracic surgery, trauma, and infection, quickly becoming life-threatening if ruptured. This pathology is typically asymptomatic and incidentally found on imaging; however, few cases have outlined hemoptysis as a presenting symptom for aortic pseudoaneurysms. Traditionally, management of these patients included surgical correction; however, percutaneous approaches have emerged as a safe alternative, helping to reduce the risk of morbidity and mortality associated with surgical correction. This report seeks to describe a case in which hemoptysis was the symptom unveiling the finding of a thoracic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm and the use of an Amplatzer atrial septal defect (ASD) occlusion device as a viable option to safely resolve the disease process. |
