          Abstract

          Mediastinum hematoma is often caused by chest trauma, aortic dissection, and tumor. Spontaneous nontraumatic middle mediastinum hematoma is a rare and potentially life-threatening condition. Here, we report the case of a patient who was a 46-year-old experienced sudden chest pain with spontaneous middle mediastinum hematoma caused by rupture of the bilateral bronchial artery. We successfully treated the patient with transcatheter arterial embolization via the bilateral bronchial artery using N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate.

            Ruptured bronchial artery aneurysm associated with bronchiectasis: a case report.

            A massive hemothorax from a ruptured bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is very rare. Only 12 cases of ruptured mediastinal BAA have been reported. This case study describes a 77-year-old female with bronchiectasis who presented with anemia, hypertension, hemothorax, and a mediastinal mass. A chest tube was inserted through which 2 liters of unclotted blood was drained from the left pleural cavity. An enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a ruptured 3-cm diameter mediastinal aneurysm of a bronchial artery supplying the left lower lobe. Transcatheter artery embolization (TAE) with multiple microcoils was performed successfully. Although the patient needed a transfusion, the subsequent course was uneventful. In the absence of trauma or other causes for hemothorax and mediastinal hemorrhage, the possibility of a BAA should be considered. TAE is the treatment method of choice as a minimally invasive strategy in patients with ruptured BAA.
