case_images: (a) Lung CT demonstrates bilateral nodular infiltrates with a left lower lobe cavity containing hematoma from active pulmonary tuberculosis. (b) Contrast CT demonstrates focal contrast enhancement in the left lower lobe pulmonary aneurysm (arrow). (c) Selective left lower pulmonary arteriogram demonstrates the saccular Rasmussen aneurysm with a narrow neck. (d) Post embolization pulmonary angiogram demonstrates occlusion of the neck of the aneurysm with a single steel coil with residual contrast within the aneurysm.

case_images: A CT scan of the lungs confirmed the diagnosis (Figure 1(a)). Focal contrast enhancement in the left lower lobe parenchyma was detected on the contrast CT scan (Figure 1(b)). A 5 cm diameter oval aneurysm was detected originating from the left lower lobe posterior-medial segment pulmonary artery (Figure 1(c)). A single Gianturco steel coil 5 mm in diameter was selectively placed at the neck of the aneurysm with occlusion of the pulmonary aneurysm (Figure 1(d)).
