Pulmonary pseudoaneurysms (PAPs) are an uncommon complication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection, although they are a potentially life-threatening condition. We present this interesting condition of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pneumonia. The patient presented with abnormal lung nodule and developed massive haemoptysis after recovering from Covid-19 pneumonia. PAP was diagnosed by computed tomography angiography. Endovascular embolization was performed and the bleeding was stopped.
