case_images: Axial computed tomography angiography of arterial (A) and venous (B) phases at two different levels below the carina, demonstrating a descending aortic pseudoaneurysm (black arrow) protruding into the esophagus (with a nasogastric tube in situ) through an aortoesophageal fistula (evidenced by direct communication of esophagus and aorta). There is a progressive increase in amount of contrast material (white arrow) in the esophagus, indicating rupture of the pseudoaneurysm and active bleeding.

case_images: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) thereafter demonstrated an AEF with aortic pseudoaneurysm, as well as massive contrast extravasation at the distal esophagus suggestive of an active hemorrhage (Figures 1, 2).
case_images: Coronal (A) and sagittal (B) maximum intensity projection images from computed tomography angiography show a descending aortic pseudoaneurysm (black arrow) at the level of the aortoesophageal fistula, complicated with rupture and contrast material extravasation (white arrow) into the esophagus (with a nasogastric tube in situ).
