Massive hemoptysis is one of the fatal condition in the symptoms of chest diseases. Airway protection and etiology therapy is lifesaving. A 29-year-old male patient was referred to our center for massive hemoptysis. He had 10 packet-years of smoking and lung
cyst operation 20 years ago. Bleeding could not be stopped by bronchoscopic intervention in the outer center. Pulmonary imaging
showed consolidation and laceration with right rib fracture and bone density within the parenchyma. Bronchial artery embolization
was performed. He was operated due to lack of bleeding control. Recurrentoperations were performed until pneumonectomy due
to expansion defect. The patient has been followed up for 2 years and is asymptomatic. Hemoptysis was considered due to the
operation complication performed 20 years ago.We aimed to present a patient who presented with massive hemoptysis due to a
previously unreported cause.
