    Abstract:
    11 years after patch aortoplasty due to coarctation of the aorta a 33 year-old patient experienced two spontaneous haemoptyses. A centralvenous digital subtraction angiography demonstrated a large aneurysm of the proximal descending aorta penetrating the left upper lobe of the lung. The successful emergency surgical treatment consisted of implantation of a dacron-prosthesis.
