title: Rasmussen's aneurysm with aspergilloma in old, healed pulmonary tuberculosis.
abstract: Rasmussen's aneurysm is rare sequelae of pulmonary tuberculosis. The hemoptysis caused by rupturing of it is usually massive and needs early and aggressive management. To our knowledge, we are the first to report a case of Rasmussen's aneurysm with aspergilloma proved pathologically. The accomplishment of aspergilloma changes the first choice of treatment from endovascular embolisation to surgery.
