Abstract
Adult patients with congenital cardiovascular abnormalities such as aortic coarctation may rarely, due to the high pressure and dilation in the bronchial arteries, present with recurrent haemoptysis as the sole clinical sign.A multidetector computed tomography scan contributes significantly to the aetiological diagnosis of haemoptysis in cases of congenital cardiovascular abnormalities.Interventional procedures such as stenting are currently the preferred approach for the treatment of aortic coarctation in adults, with good outcomes.
