• Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms are rare but important and treatable cause of massive haemoptysis. • This study shows the advantages of percutaneous management of these pseudoaneurysms as an alternate to endovascular embolisation, in case endovascular embolisation is not feasible or practical. • It is a safe and minimally invasive treatment, with technical success of 93.1% and clinical success of 88.9% in this study.
