One hour after the procedure, the patient developed signs of shock such as dyspnoea, hypotension, and altered mental status. Initial evaluation, including physical examination, electrocardiography, and transthoracic echocardiography, was negative. Subsequent computed tomography (CT) angiography revealed a mediastinal haematoma and active bleeding of the right thyrocervical artery. After urgent successful embolization, haemodynamics stabilized, and recovery was uneventful.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case highlights the importance of considering rare (iatrogenic) bleeding sources as a potential cause of shock after coronary angiography or PCI and its diagnostic pitfalls.
