Abstract |
Arterial involvement of Behcet's disease (BD) includes arterial occlusions and aneurysms, of
which aneurysms are the more common. Aortopulmonary fistula is an anomalous communication
between the aorta and a segment of the tracheobronchial tree, and this may develop after thoracic
vascular surgery and cause fatal hemoptysis. We experienced a case of BD in a 34-year-old man
who was diagnosed as having an aortopulmonary fistula between the aortic pseudoaneurysm and the
bronchus of the left upper lobe, and this developed after graft replacement surgery for aortic
aneurysm.(Korean J Med 71:577-581, 2006)
Key Words : Behcet's disease, Aneurysm, Pseudoaneurysm, Aortopulmonary fistula |
