Abstract
We report the case of a 64-year-old woman who presented with massive hemoptysis. She was found to be bleeding from a pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in the right middle lobe, which had a peculiar blood supply from the right internal mammary artery. Video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy was successfully performed for this condition. Limitations of embolization as a treatment modality for this condition are discussed.Entities:
