## TL;DR

A rare case of a subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm in a Pancoast tumor patient was successfully treated using endovascular techniques.

## Contribution

This paper presents a novel endovascular approach for managing subclavian artery rupture via radial access in a complex clinical scenario.

## Key findings

- Endovascular stent graft placement effectively managed the subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm.
- The procedure involved occluding the internal thoracic and vertebral arteries to treat the rupture site.

## Abstract

The authors report herein a rare case of an endovascular management of a giant subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm, revealed by a massive hemoptysis in a patient suffering from a Pancoast tumor.

The endovascular procedure consisted of covering the subclavian artery rupture site with a stent graft after occluding the proximal segments of the ipsilateral internal thoracic and vertebral arteries.

Subclavian artery rupture was effectively managed using endovascular techniques via radial access.
