Bleeding Beyond the Heart: Alveolar Hemorrhage Post Thrombolysis

Alveolar hemorrhage (AH) is a rare yet severe clinical condition marked by significant bleeding into the alveolar spaces, often leading to high mortality. AH can occur following systemic thrombolysis for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), a complication that is infrequent but potentially life-threatening and may result in acute respiratory failure. This entity is rarely reported in the literature. This case report presents an instance of AH following intravenous thrombolysis for AMI in a 58-year-old male patient.
