Abstract
Aortobronchial fistula may cause a massive fatal hemoptysis. Recently prosthetic aortic graft insertion or endovascular stent graft is a cause of aortobronchial fistula. We report a rare case of hemoptysis from a fistula between an aortic arch aneurysm and the left main bronchus in a patient who had undergone an endovascular stent graft in pseudoaneurysm of descending thoracic aorta one year before.
