Abstract
A rare case of pulmonary artery bronchial fistula after sleeve lobectomy for lung cancer is described. Non-aspergillous ulcerative bronchitis was the most considerable cause of death in our case. The patient was once saved by emergency thoracotomy, but finally he died from recurrent massive hemoptysis resulting from newly formed pulmonary artery bronchial fistula. Albeit our case had quite rarely clinical course, we must have a threat for this fatal complication even when we are managing nonimmunosuppressive patients.
