Tuberculosis (TB) can cause rare Rasmussen's aneurysms, a dangerous complication. This case highlights the importance of recognizing and treating these aneurysms, especially with TB resurgence.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Pulmonology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Tuberculosis (TB) is re-emerging in Western communities.
  • Massive hemoptysis is a severe complication of active TB.
  • Rasmussen's aneurysm is a rare but life-threatening sequela of TB.

Observation:

  • A young, alcoholic male with active TB presented with cardiac arrest after massive hemoptysis.
  • Multidetector computed tomography angiography identified a Rasmussen's aneurysm.
  • Digital subtraction angiography confirmed the diagnosis.

Findings:

  • The Rasmussen's aneurysm was successfully treated with glue embolization.
  • This case underscores the importance of recognizing TB complications.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for managing Rasmussen's aneurysm.

Implications:

  • Clinicians should consider TB as a potential cause of Rasmussen's aneurysm, even in Western countries.
  • Improved diagnostic and interventional radiology techniques are vital.
  • Awareness of TB sequelae is critical due to its resurgence.
