Conservatively Treated Giant‐Sized Rasmussen Aneurysm: Case Report of a Rare Sequela of Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Rasmussen aneurysm is a rare cause of tuberculosis-related hemoptysis, which affects about 0.007% of the general population. This case report highlights the role of conservative treatment as a valuable therapeutic option in hemodynamically stable patients, particularly in resource-constrained settings with limited access to endovascular embolization techniques.

Abstract

Rasmussen aneurysm is a rare cause of tuberculosis-related hemoptysis, which affects about 0.007% of the general population. This case report highlights the role of conservative treatment as a valuable therapeutic option in hemodynamically stable patients, particularly in resource-constrained settings with limited access to endovascular embolization techniques.
