Abstract
Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms pose a therapeutic challenge due to their lack of a defined wall, making the choice of endovascular therapy crucial. The added complexity arises from their proximal location, often necessitating endovascular stenting for effective treatment. Our case highlights a successful therapeutic intervention involving stenting and glue embolization to address a sizable proximal pseudoaneurysm in the right pulmonary artery. This approach demonstrates the efficacy of combining these techniques in managing such challenging cases. The utilization of endovascular stenting, coupled with glue embolization, could be a therapeutic option in the context of giant pseudoaneurysms located proximally within the pulmonary artery.Keywords
