Significant bleeding has also been described from catheter-entry sites, the retroperitoneum, and the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts. However, hemoptysis induced by thrombolysis has rarely been described in the literature. We present a 66-year-old male who received front-loaded tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) for acute transmural anterior wall myocardial infarction and developed massive hemoptysis from preexisting cavitary lung disease. The patient died within 5 hours. We believe this is the first case report of fatal hemoptysis induced by coronary thrombolysis. A history of cavitary lung disease may be a risk factor for life-threatening hemoptysis in patients receiving thrombolytic therapy.
