Bronchovascular fistula is a rare but fatal complication in lung transplant recipients. We report the successful salvage of a right pneumonectomy performed in a patient with a fistula between the right main bronchus and the pulmonary artery after ulcerative bronchitis caused by Aspergillus fumigatus.
