Bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is a rare vascular phenomenon. This review highlights a case of a BAA that was complicated by the presence of a bronchial artery to pulmonary artery (BA-PA) fistula, consequently presenting a unique challenge to management. BAAs have a strongly reported risk of rupture resulting in life-threatening hemoptysis. Embolization has thus become routine for the management such severe cases. The management of incidentally found anomalies is less obvious, but prophylactic embolization is a generally accepted practice. In this report, we review some of the risks and benefits associated with BAA embolization with specific consideration of the challenges in cases of co-existing BA-PA fistula.

Hemoptysis is a rare, life-threatening condition in childhood defined as bleeding into the lungs due to underlying disorders or respiratory tract abnormalities. The bleeding from an arterial malformation to normal lung segments without underlying cardiovascular or pulmonary disorders is widely reported in adults but extremely rare in the pediatric age group. Bronchial artery aneurysm (BAA) is a rare vascular malformation complicated with a bronchial artery to pulmonary artery (BA PA) fistula. BAAs are life-threatening conditions because of the substantial risk of rupture that can cause massive hemoptysis. In such a case, BAA embolization (BAAE) has become essential management. We report here previously healthy child presented with massive hemoptysis due to systemic-pulmonary fistula, which was bleeding controlled by BAAE
