Pulmonary artery aneurysmal rupture is a rare cause of massive hemoptysis. When the suspected origin of bleeding is the pulmonary artery, comprehensive evaluation is necessary to determine aetiology and guide appropriate management. Behçet's disease and Hughes-Stovin Syndrome (HSS) are important differentials to consider after infections and malignancy have been ruled out.

The rupture of PAPs may lead to severe and massive hemoptysis and asphyxiation, necessitating prompt and accurate diagnostic measures, including CT angiography, in conjunction with clinical awareness for adequate management. The aim of this pictorial essay is to establish a strategy for endovascular intervention based on a comprehensive understanding of the etiology and hemodynamics of bronchopulmonary circulation for effective and rapid PAP treatment.

Article Synopsis
- Hemoptysis, the coughing up of blood, can stem from various serious underlying conditions, but often involves high-pressure bronchial arteries; Bronchial artery embolization (BAE) is typically the first-line treatment despite varying long-term success rates.
- A 12-year-old boy with a history of massive hemoptysis underwent multiple BAEs and recent imaging confirmed the location of previous coils; however, he experienced another episode where traditional intervention was complicated by prior treatments.
- The medical team opted for a thoracoscopic approach, successfully isolating and ligating the problematic vessel, leading to the patient's stabilization and discharge after four days.

Tuberculosis is endemic in Pakistan and other countries in South Asia despite various treatment programs being introduced for its elimination. It leads to a number of serious consequences which involve different organ systems of the body and Rasmussen Aneurysm is one such serious complication. It is the pseudo-aneurysmal dilatation of the pulmonary artery adjacent to a tubercular cavity and manifests as massive hemoptysis, like in the case of our patient.
