Deskripsi

Bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare entity which is diagnosed radiologically; with or without symptoms. Symptoms of phonation changes with bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm are yet to be reported. This article describes the case of a 56-year-old man who presented with a history of a hoarse voice. This was investigated with computed tomography of his chest which diagnosed a bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm under the arch of the aorta. He was subsequently treated with coil embolization. The original symptoms improved with this intervention. This case highlights the rare presentation of hoarseness of voice in this rare condition.
